Inter Milan's new manager Luciano Spalletti has dismissed rumours linking Ivan Perisic to Manchester United .
The winger has been linked with a move to the Red Devils this summer after netting 19 times during the past two seasons at the San Siro, report the Manchester Evening News .
Jose Mourinho appears to have a winger on his list of summer transfer targets after being linked with a move for his former Chelsea charge Willian earlier this summer.
Inter must raise £26million by the end of this month in order to comply with regulations, but Spalletti refused to speculate about whether that will mean selling Perisic or Mauro Icardi.

"I’ll avoid answering on Icardi and Perisic for now," he said.
"There are strong players at Inter but they have to get into the team mechanism. It must be the team that works.
"I want all the players who are able to donate something to their team-mates with their quality."

The 28-year-old would give Mourinho a more direct option with his ability to find an extra gear when bursting forward into the final third.
The Croatian is comfortable with the ball at his feet under pressure and is a bit of a throwback with his trademark of running to the byline and swinging in a low, teasing cross.
