Inter Milan look set to step up their interest in Barcelona right-back Martin Montoya this January, as talkSPORT reports that they will make the defender a priority in the transfer market if the club is bought out by Erick Thohir.

The Indonesian businessman has reportedly held talks with Massimo Morratti over buying his majority stake in the club, and this could give Inter a cash injection to enjoy when the transfer window re-opens in January.

This will undoubtedly see the Italians linked to a number of big names as the months go on, but at the moment they are reportedly keen to beat the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool to Montoya, who is a hot prospect in the game despite failing to establish himself as first choice at Barcelona.

The 22-year-old made 15 La Liga appearances for the club last season, but faces a fight to jump ahead of Brazilian international Dani Alves in the pecking order, leading to speculation that he may be tempted by a move away as he continues to stall on signing a new contract at the Nou Camp.

Montoya started his career in Barca’s youth team, and has 22 caps for the Spanish Under-21 side.
