Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are all reportedly keeping a close eye on Milan Skriniar's contract situation at Inter Milan.
The 27-year-old's current deal at San Siro is due to expire next June, meaning that, as it stands, he would be free to hold talks with foreign clubs in January.
Inter CEO Giuseppe Marotta recently said that he was "very optimistic" a new deal would be secured before November 13.
"As far as Skriniar, who is absolutely top-class both on and off the pitch, I hope we can agree a new deal very much, and I'm very optimistic that the negotiations can reach a conclusion by November 13," said Marotta. "The conditions look to be positive for me to say this."
However, there remains widespread speculation surrounding the centre-back, who has made 18 appearances for Inter in all competitions during the 2022-23 campaign.

According to 90min, Man City, Man United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs have all asked to be kept up to date with any developments.
The report claims that officials from all six clubs have been in touch with Skriniar's representatives in recent weeks to register their interest in his services.
Paris Saint-Germain are believed to have been close to signing the Slovakia international over the summer, only for the deal to break down in the final moments.
Inter are not in a financial position to offer Skriniar the type of wages that he could receive in the Premier League, while he would be in an even stronger position to demand a huge pay packet if he came a free agent.
The Slovakian represented Sampdoria between 2016 and 2017, making 38 appearances, before moving to Inter on a five-year contract.

Skriniar has now made 233 appearances for the Milan giants in all competitions, contributing 11 goals and four assists in the process.
The defender has won one Serie A title, the Coppa Italia and the Italian Super Cup during his time at the club, in addition to reaching the final of the 2019-20 Europa League.
A recent report claimed that Man United could attempt to use Inter's interest in Donny van de Beek to sign Skriniar in January amid the uncertainty surrounding his future.
However, Marotta remains hopeful that a deal can be agreed before next weekend, which would end the exit talk.
Skriniar was allegedly one of the signings that PSG promised Kylian Mbappe they would make over the summer, but a switch ultimately did not go through.
