Either way, I'm happy the Perisic deal didn't happen. Inter was taking the piss with their demands (€50m + Martial on loan).
I suppose it's impossible to know what a real "link" is these days, but Spurs were apparently after him earlier this summer as well. Sometimes these rumours are hilarious though, in general. Like the media looks and thinks "this team could use an attacking mid, so lets look around and see who that could be..."

And really, these are multibillion dollar organizations, but when it comes to the window they still have to "scout" players who are entirely well known to anyone paying attention. It would be like the Flames sending scouts to see if they should trade for Malkin. But I suppose that is all part of the game.
