Skriniar is undoubtedly one of the best defenders in the Italian Serie A at the moment. The 23-year-old Slovakian has made a great impact at his club Internazionale since signing from Sampdoria in the summer of 2017. Skriniar has been described as a ‘tough, robust and a hard tackler’ by his gaffer Luciano Spaletti. The latter is also known for his leadership qualities both on and off the pitch.

Skriniar has made 11 appearances for Inter in the Serie A, 1.9 tackles per game, 3.4 clearances per game and 1.3 blocks per game.

The Slovakian beast, unsurprisingly, has already been linked with Manchester United recently and even in the last season. One thing Jose Mourinho likes in his defenders is their toughness and leadership qualities. So, there’s no doubt Mourinho would try to sign him up for his team next month.
