Inter are set to face competition from Zenit St Petersburg and Chinese side Jiangsu Suning for the signature of Federico Bernardeschi.

The Nerazzurri had previously prepared an offer worth €25 million for the 22-year-old Fiorentina winger, however he may not remain in Serie A at all after foreign clubs became interested in him.

According to quotidiano.net, these include Russian side Zenit St Petersburg, while Chinese Super League club Jiangsu Suning are also willing to match Inter’s €25 million bid.

Bernardeschi has played for La Viola since turning professional in 2013 after spending 10 years in their youth ranks, but did have a loan spell out to Crotone in the 2013/14 season.

He was name in Antonio Conte’s Euro 2016 squad, albeit only making one appearance in Italy’s 1-0 defeat to the Republic of Ireland, and appeared 33 times in Serie A last season.
