When asked recently about his future, Skriniar said it depended in large part on where Inter finish up in the Serie A table this season: “My objective is to play in the Champions League with Inter,” he replied. On Sunday, Inter face what is essentially a playoff for a place at Europe’s top table next season against Lazio, who currently occupy fourth in the table. To reach the Champions League, Inter must beat the Rome-based side in the Stadio Olimpico.

Skriniar has been linked with a move to LaLiga previously, with both Real Madrid and Atlético having been credited with an interest in a player who cost Inter 23 million euros when he signed from Sampdoria last summer.
