Inter Milan have added Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic to their list of transfer targets, according to the Corriere Dello Sport.
The Serbian’s future at Stamford Bridge is in doubt with midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko still looking to seal his move from Monaco. France Football are reporting that the Frenchman’s switch to the Blues has been held up until he recovers from a knee injury which could see him fail a medical.
Matic has two years left on his contract with Chelsea and he has been heavily linked with a move to join up once again with Jose Mourinho at Manchester United.
Inter’s interest at this stage though looks to be tentative. The Corriere Dello Sport are reporting they are also looking at Monaco’s Fabinho and Paris Saint-Germain’s Grzegorz Krychowiak.
Matic was a regular under Antonio Conte during the Italian’s first season as manager. The 28 year old made 40 appearances in all competitions last campaign, scoring two goals and providing nine assists.
