Arsenal & Man Utd want to sign Serie A assist magnet

Arsenal and Manchester United are keen on landing the signature of Federico Dimarco from Inter Milan during the summer transfer window, according to Teamtalk.

The Italy international has been a key player for the Nerazzurri in the left wing-back position. He has notched up six goals and 11 assists from 35 appearances this campaign.

Talks are underway between Inter and Dimarco over a new long-term deal, but there are suggestions that he could snub the extension for a more promising contract abroad.

Dimarco is on the radar of Arsenal and United. The Premier League giants could go head-to-head to purchase the versatile defender, who could open the door to a fresh challenge.

Arsenal have been monitoring Dimarco since last summer, but a move would come as a surprise, given they have Riccardo Calafiori, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Piero Hincapie for the left-back role.

Hincapie arrived on loan from Bayer Leverkusen, but there is an obligation to buy. United, on the other hand, may see Dimarco as a competitor to Luke Shaw with Patrick Dorgu seen as a future winger.
