Inter Milan are laying the groundwork to sign Jonathan David, but face competition from Juventus, Napoli, AC Milan, and Atletico Madrid.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews. They report that there’s also interest from the Premier League in the Canadian’s signature.

24-year-old Canadian international David is all but certain to be one of the big names on the free agent market next summer.

The former Gent striker is out of contract with Lille next summer. His contract expires at the end of next June.

And there is no indication that David will sign a new deal with Lille.

The Ligue 1 club have tried to convince the Canadian to put pen to paper on an extension. But he is not inclined to do so.

Therefore, David will almost certainly be available on a free transfer at the end of this season.

David has stayed at Lille for a few seasons despite fairly persistent transfer rumours linking him with an exit.

But with the striker available without a transfer fee, he will become a particularly enticing prospect.

Inter are certainly a team who take note of big free transfer opportunities.

The Nerazzurri have signed all of Stefan de Vrij, Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Andre Onana, and Marcus Thuram via that route in recent years.

This summer, Piotr Zielinski and Mehdi Taremi arrived at Inter on free transfers.

Therefore, it is not surprise that Inter are eyeing up David.

The Canadian international turns 25 in January. Therefore, Inter owners Oaktree Capital would happily sanction his signing, seeing him as compatible with their youth-focused project.

Then, Tuttosport notes, David would be a good tactical fit for Inter.

The Lille striker has shown the ability to play as either a second striker or an out-and-out centre-forward. That would certainly be an asset in the Nerazzurri’s 3-5-2 system.

As such, Inter are certainly keen. They have, according to Tuttosport, already started establishing the contacts to try and sign David.

However, Inter are far from alone in this regard.

According to Tuttosport, the likes of Juventus, Napoli, and AC Milan also want to bring David to Serie A.

From Spain, Atletico Madrid are keen. And then there are always teams from the Premier League.
