While Chelsea may be homing in on signing Crystal Palace forward Wilfred Zaha, amid interests from local rivals Tottenham Hotspur, the club have been handed a boost in signing target Mateo Kovacic from Real Madrid this summer.
The former Inter Milan man who joined the club in 2014, has since endured playing in from the sidelines at the Bernabeu.
The Croatia is understood to be hugely keen on finding greener pastures elsewhere.
And while second-place finishers Manchester United have lodged a a 60 million euro offer for the out of favoured star, according to Marca, it is understood the Croatian international put down their requests.
The Mancunians have had their bid accepted by Real Madrid according to Marca, but the World Cup ace will resist the urge to join the Premier League giants.
Kovacic frowns deeply at Mourinho’s style of play and will instead prefer a move to join FA Cup winners Chelsea this summer, say Calciomercato via teamtalk.
The Blues have only managed two signings this summer in: Jorginho and Rob Green.
With just over 130 hours before the summer transfer door slams shut, will hope they can dicker a deal with the 13-time European champions.
Kovacic’s valuation stands on a high at 55 million pounds.
