1 Jonathan Biabiany

Inter Milan have emerged as the favourites to land Southampton target Jonathan Biabiany, reports in Italy claim.

Interest in the Parma winger is thought to be high, with both Serie A Champions Juventus and Southampton making enquiries.

Juventus had been willing to offer Simone Pepe in a straight-swap for Biabiany, a proposal that had initially caught the eye of Parma.

However, according to TMW, Inter have now offered to take Biabiany on loan for the season with a view to a permanent move next summer.

Such a deal is said to be attractive to Parma, who are keen to recoup some sort of transfer fee for the 26-year-old, and leave Southampton out in the cold.
