Ivan Perisic admits that he cannot predict how long he will stay at Inter Milan, but stresses that he is "happy" at the club.

Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic has hinted that he is open to leaving the club amid rumoured interest from Manchester United and Bayern Munich.

The Croatia international, who starred at this summer's World Cup finals, has regularly been tipped to depart the Serie A side over the past two years.

Speculation that the 29-year-old could be on his way to Old Trafford only intensified last month when Jose Mourinho admitted to being a big fan, and Bayern have also been tipped to make a move before the transfer window closes.

Despite signing a five-year deal at San Siro last September, Perisic is not ruling out a future move away.

"Last year I signed new five-year deal with Inter, I enjoy great status at the club," he told Sportske Novosti. "It is true Inter has not had the results it should have since 2010, there were some problems, bad decisions, but somehow I feel we are on the right way to return to old glory.

"I heard some clubs want me but they have to talk to my club and only after that could I join the negotiations and decide. If I was to change club, it could only be to a top league and top club. Only God knows what will happen in future, I am happy at Inter but we all know anything is possible in football.

"Honestly, I would like to test myself in all of the biggest leagues but the question is will I have the time, I am 29 and working to extend my career as long as I can. Yes, I'd like to play in England and Spain but I don't know if there is enough time left."

Perisic played a direct part in 20 Serie A goals last season, compared to 19 the season before.
