Perisic, whose contract with Inter expires next month, was reported to have travelled to London on Monday to undergo a medical with Spurs, who finished fourth in the Premier League. He won the Serie A title under Conte in 2021 and scored twice against Juventus in extra time in the Coppa Italia final earlier this month to inspire Inter to victory.

"We were not in a position to make better offers, simply his choice was based on a different future than the current one. Maximum respect for that and a big thank you to him as well."
