Arsenal, Tottenham Chasing Inter Milan Striker Diego Milito

Transfer news are out claiming that Premier League giants Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are going head to head in a £5million race to sign Inter Milan striker Diego Milito.

The 31 year old Argentinian international has bagged 27 goals in 53 appearances for the Nerazzurri, keeping up a fine goalscoring record he started at Racing Club, Real Zaragoza and Genoa.

Now the Italian club’s poor season, plus Milito’s desire to play in the Premier League, have put the North London rivals on red alert.

It is believed that his choice could depend on whether Spurs make it back into the Champions League next season as he is determined to play in Europe’s top competition again after Inter’s failure to defend their crown this campaign.

Arsenal are almost certain to be there again but Spurs’ presence hangs in the balance as they battle Manchester City for fourth spot in the Premier League.

Milito scored twice in Inter’s 2-0 triumph over Bayern Munch in the 2009 final.

Tottenham are expected to part company with Russian forward Roman Pavlyuchenko this summer, while Arsenal desperately want to pair Robin van Persie with another sharp-shooter to avoid a repeat of lost opportunities this term.
