The report adds that Antonio Conte is also keen on bringing in cover for Romelu Lukaku – who has bagged 11 goals in 13 Serie A games already this season.
Former Arsenal star Gervinho is said to be top of his wishlist, with the 33-year-old impressing at Inter’s domestic rivals Parma.
Ex-Southampton striker Graziano Pelle is another target after banging in the goals for Chinese Super League side Shandong Luneng.
Yet a deal for Chelsea veteran Olivier Giroud looks less likely after the Frenchman started to earn more minutes under Frank Lampard.
Eriksen meanwhile has been linked with PSG amid the likely arrival of former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino in Paris.
Poch has yet to be confirmed as Thomas Tuchel’s successor but is already at the centre of some spectacular transfer talk.
And SunSport previously reported that the Argentine was against letting go of compatriot Paredes despite remaining keen on Eriksen.
Inter have already admitted midfielder Eriksen is heading out in next month’s transfer window.
CEO Giuseppe Marotta told Sky Italia: “Yes, I can confirm that Christian Eriksen is on the transfer list.
“He’s going to leave in January. He’s not functional to our plans and he had difficulty here at Inter.
“I think it’s right that Christian goes away to find more space.”
