Inter defender Jeison Murillo is determined not to be distracted by transfer talk while he is at the Copa America with Colombia.

The centre-back is attracting interest from a number of clubs and it has been suggested Inter are ready to cash in on him if the right offer arrives this summer.




Premier League champions Leicester City, along with fellow English clubs West Ham, Stoke City and Everton, as well as Russian outfit Zenit St. Petersburg, have all been linked with the Colombia defender.

But on international duty with his country at the Copa America, Murillo does not want to be distracted by talk of moving clubs.
 


"What happens outside is there. I am keeping my head completely on the tournament. These matches must be addressed seriously", the Colombian was quoted as saying by Italian outlet Tutto Mercato, when asked about the transfer links.

Inter only snapped up Murillo from Spanish side Granada last year, the Italian giants putting down a total package which could reach €10m in order to secure his services.

He put pen to paper on a five-year contract with the Nerazzurri to remain at the San Siro until the summer of 2020.
