Inter Milan chief executive officer Beppe Marotta said on Sunday that a deal to bring Tottenham Hotspur's Christian Eriksen to the San Siro is close to completion.

Marotta told DAZN (h/t Football Italia) that he is optimistic the Nerazzurri have won the race for the Denmark international's signature.

"We won't hide, you all know we've been negotiating with Tottenham for some time. His contract is due to expire on June 30, so the only rights we are discussing are for those six months. We are optimistic and hope the deal can be finalised as soon as possible, especially as the transfer window closes on Friday.
