Inter Milan are reportedly interested in signing Atletico Madrid centre-back Jose Gimenez this summer.

The 22-year-old joined Atletico from Uruguayan side Danubio in 2013, and has been a regular at the Vicente Calderon over the last three seasons.

Gimenez was forced to play second fiddle to fellow centre-backs Diego Godin and Stefan Savic for periods of the 2016-17 campaign, however, and it is understood that the defender is considering his long-term future in Madrid.

According to AS, Inter have asked Atletico about the availability of the Uruguay international, who is desperate for first-team football next term ahead of the 2018 World Cup.

Gimenez, who has also previously been strongly linked with a move to Manchester United, only started 12 La Liga matches last season.
