Reports | Inter Milan intervene in Manchester United’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang pursuit

Inter Milan are preparing their contingency plan, as the likelihood of a breakup of their striking duo, increases. Barcelona are keen on signing Argentine sensation Lautaro Martinez, which would leave a void to partner Romelu Lukaku. The Italian side are convinced that the Arsenal hitman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is the best fit. La Gazzetta dello Sport has reported that Manchester United will have to revamp their offer for the striker, after increased interest from the Italian side.

It was estimated that the Manchester side had prepared a bid in the region of £50million. United’s bid would fall insufficient now after Antonio Conte intends to strengthen his attacking line for the upcoming season. The former Chelsea boss is also in race for Olivier Giroud as Frank Lampard is not planning to build his squad around the Frenchman. Plus the former Arsenal star's contract expires at the end of the season and it makes things easier.

The Premier League giants have always had difficulty doing business with one another, and with Arsenal having an option to cash in on Aubameyang and send him away from England, the Red Devils’ desire to land a move for him will only grow distant. The former Dortmund man is Premier League’s top scorer with 17 goals already this season, and will also be approached by Barcelona, should their plans to pursue Lautaro Martinez suffer an unlikely blow.
