Inter Milan defender linked to Palace

Davide Santon has once again been linked for a move to South London after failing to make an impact in his second spell in Milan.

The report comes from Corriere dello Sport who say that the former Newcastle United full-back has been pushed out of the side thanks to Danilo D’Ambrosio and Yuto Nagatomo.

Santon was originally in Roberto Mancini’s starting 11 before injury lost him his position in the side. Now it is believed that the defender once dubbed the next Paolo Maldini is interested in moving back to the Premier League.

The Italian international has eight caps for the Azzurri and made 82 appearances over four years with the recently relegated North-East club.

Alan Pardew was manager of the Toon whilst Santon was a regular in the Magpies squad. Sky Sports and the Corriere dello Sport have both reported that the Eagles are considering a move for the 25 year-old.
