Inter eyeing move for Ligue 1 defender

Serie A champions Inter now have Lille defender Mehmet Zeki Çelik on their shortlist and he’s now a target for the Nerazzurri.

This comes from journalist Marco Conterio, who states that Lille have made it clear that they want a fee of €10 million to part ways with the Turk, who played a role in their Ligue 1 title win last season.

In recent weeks, Celik has also been on the shortlist of Fiorentina and other European clubs as well. La Viola, who are said to be close to losing Pol Lirola to Marseille, could look to bring in the Lille man to replace the Spaniard this summer.

The 24-year-old had played 29 times in Ligue 1 last season and he had contributed to six goals, racking up three and as many assists too.
