Roma and Inter want Sandro

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Sandro has admitted that he is aware that he is a transfer target of Serie A sides Roma and Inter Milan.

  

The Brazil international joined Spurs in 2010 when then coach Harry Redknapp brought him to London from Brazilian Serie A side Internacional, and he has since made 76 appearances for the Premier League side.

Now the 24-year-old has revealed that two of Italy's most decorated outfits are interested in possibly securing his services at the end of the 2013/2014 season.

"Inter and Roma want me? Yes, I know," he told Radio Bradesco Esportes FM. "I know a lot about the interest in me, but I'm happy with the Spurs and I haven't made any concrete contacts with anyone.

"I can say, however, that it's always nice to be appreciated."

Despite the interest from abroad and despite the recent sacking of Andre Villas-Boas the defensive midfielder has said he is fully committed to north London club's immediate goals.

"There was the sacking of the [Andres] Villas-Boas, which I believe isn't fully correct, but I know that results count the most in football," he revealed.

"Here with Tottenham we would like to win the Premier League, even if the real objective is to gain a spot in the Champions League for next season."

Looking to the future the Brazilian also admitted that he would consider returning home to South America, and he explained: "Will I return to Brazil? Now is too soon. I'll only return when I'm close to ending my career."
