Inter interested in signing Tottenham forward Giovani dos Santos

Inter are believed to be pondering a move to acquire the services of Tottenham Hotspur striker Giovani dos Santos.

Italian newspaper Tuttosport

reports that the European champions are monitoring the situation at White Hart Lane, following the cash influx they have received from the sale of young forward Mario Balotelli to Manchester City.

Meanwhile, Dos Santos spent a portion of last season on loan with Galatasaray, having failed to break into the first-team at the north London club. Following an impressive World Cup showing with Mexico, Dos Santos started Spurs' Champions League qualifying first leg against Young Boys on Tuesday night.

It had recently been thought that the Barcelona youth product would be willing to consider a move away from his current club, if a concrete offer should be forthcoming from a club in the Serie A.
