Perisic: 'I'm only focused on Inter Milan'

Ivan Perisic plays down talk of a move to Manchester United by insisting that he is now fully focused on Inter Milan following his successful World Cup campaign.

Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic has insisted that he has not given a second thought to speculation linking him with a move to Manchester United.

Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho admitted at the weekend that he wanted to sign the 29-year-old last summer, only for a transfer to break down.

Talk of a switch being on the cards for Perisic refuses to go away, however, with United said to be weighing up a fresh offer ahead of the 2018-19 campaign.

After spending the past six weeks with Croatia, though, helping his national side to the final of the World Cup, Perisic's mind has been focused on other matters.

"So far I have thought of Croatia," he told reporters. "Now I will rest, I will return to focus on Inter."

Perisic scored 11 goals and set up nine more in the Italian top flight last season.
