Inter Milan will attempt to lure Ryan Giggs from Old Trafford this summer.

The president of the Italian giants, Massimo Moratti, has confirmed Inter's interest in the 29-year-old winger.

"Every year there's talk of us getting Giggs and although I think Manchester United are still keen on him, I believe an offer will be considered," Moratti told the Sunday Mirror.

"The fact is we like him and we will be making an offer in the summer.

"He is the type of player the fans will love here. We are confident that if a deal can be done, we will do it."

The Italian press have repeatedly linked the Welshman with a move to the San Siro in the past few months, and speculation increased when Giggs became a target for supporters' criticism recently.

Giggs is rated in the £20million bracket, however, and under the current financial climate it seems any move for the player would be an ambitious one for Inter.

Italian clubs are currently being forced to tighten their purse-strings, with a recent survey by the Il Sole 24 Ore newspaper putting the combined operating losses of Serie A clubs last season at 948million euros (£639million).

According to the survey, Inter were responsible for almost a tenth of that total, with their losses quoted at 94.6m euros (£62.4million).

really should have put if in capitals really shouldn't I? Considering the way he's playing at the moment we'd be lucky to get 10 mil for him.

Twenty million for a twenty-nine year old winger?

That's a very hefty price, considering he'll only have a few more years at the top level, especially as a player who relies on his pace (which I might add, he still has in abundance in my opinion).

If that kind of offer is made, I think United should take it.

The next question is, who do we want in his place?

Kieron Dyer would be a nice replacement, (especially going by yesterday's performance) but I suspect he won't be available...

If we get 20 mil for him then i say sell him and bring Ronaldinho in. Not only is he younger than Giggs he's also a whole lot better as well.

On his current form if Utd could get between 10 and 15 million for him it would be a good deal.
