Inter Milan want to kick-start a January spending spree by signing Brazilian midfielder Sandro from Tottenham.

The Serie A outfit are planning to splash the cash when the transfer window re-opens, with new owner Erick Thohir promising funds to improve the squad.

And Spurs ace Sandro has emerged as Inter’s first target, with a £6million bid being lined up ahead of the new year.

Tottenham would likely resist the offer, but with the midfielder desperate to be guaranteed regular football ahead of the World Cup at the end of the season, he could push for the switch.



Sandro currently faces a battle with Paulinho and Mousa Dembele to get in the Spurs team, while Etienne Capoue will also hope to play when he recovers from injury.

A tough tackling and rugged midfielder, Sandro is currently short on fitness having just returned from a serious knee injury he sustained last term.

The 24-year-old, who nearly joined Inter before moving to White Hart Lane in 2010, has remained a long-term target for sporting director Marco Branca.
