Report: Tottenham Hotspur want Nani on loan

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly joined Inter Milan in the race to sign Manchester United winger Nani on loan.

The 27-year-old Portugal international has started just five Premier League matches since David Moyes replaced Sir Alex Ferguson as United manager in the summer.

Moyes does not want to sell the player, but he appears to be willing to loan him out for the remainder of the season.

According to The Metro, Inter have offered to cover all of Nani's wages, but Spurs are willing to provide a better overall package by paying a loan fee as well.

However, United may be cautious about lending such a talented player to one of their direct rivals for a top-four finish.

Spurs are currently three points above the Red Devils in the Premier League table.
