Metro: Huntelaar has sights on Italy

Klaas Jan Huntelaar would prefer a move to Inter Milan this January over Arsenal or Liverpool, according to the player's agent.

Huntelaar is widely expected to quit current club Schalke in the new year, as he has less than six months left on his current deal, and the race is on to land his signature.

Arsenal and Liverpool have both expressed a huge interest in acquiring Huntelaar, but Inter Milan are also keen, and agent Arnold Oosterveer says his client would jump at the chance to sign for Inter over the other options.

'He would not mind playing in Milan again - especially because Inter would give him the chance to show he is a great player,' said Oosterveer.

Huntelaar has already had one spell playing in Italy, having initially joined Schalke from AC Milan, where he struggled to live up to expectations.

Schalke have already refused to sell Huntelaar during the January transfer window, but it's thought that a bid in excess of £10million should be enough to get the deal done.
