Inter Milan 'plotting move for Manchester City's Ilkay Gundogan'

Inter Milan are allegedly considering launching a summer bid for Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan.

According to Corriere dello Sport, the Nerazzurri will move for the German if they qualify for the Champions League, a feat they can achieve by defeating Lazio on the final day of the season.

Inter head into the match in fifth place, three points behind Lazio with an inferior goal difference, but a win would see them leapfrog their opponents due to a superior head-to-head record.

Gundogan's future at the Etihad Stadium has been cast into doubt amid rumours that manager Pep Guardiola is hoping to sign Lazio midfielder Jorginho this summer.

The report states that Inter would struggle to bankroll a bid for the player without Champions League football behind them.
