Inter pursue Capoue
Italian side Inter Milan have emerged as contenders to sign out of favour Tottenham Hotspur defensive midfielder Étienne Capoue.
The French international blotted his copybook when complaining the English don't understand foreigners which seemed to be prompted by the fact this was the first time in his career he had not been guaranteed a starting place. Having to fight to challenge for one seemed to be an alien concept to him and Tim Sherwood preferred to play Nabil Bentaleb.
Mauricio Pochettino after giving him a chance also reverted to Nabil Bentaleb and after November left Capoue on the sidelines. He isn't wanted at the club, not having the right mental approach to the game, but it perfectly capable of doing a good job elsewhere if he gets his guaranteed football.
He joined Spurs from Toulouse for £9.68 million (US$14.84m - AUS$19.02m - €13.19m) and Daniel Levy will want to recoup that interested parties. According to the Corriere dello Sport via Le10 Sport Inter Milan are very interested with David Moyes Real Sociedad known to be another interested party.
There are no indications whether Capoue would be agreeable to moving to Italy but if he wants to play football and have a chance of getting into the French squad for the European Championships he'll have to leave Tottenham.
