CHELSEA have been landed a blow in their plans to sign Mateo Kovacic on a permanent basis with former club Inter Milan reportedly plotting a move.
The Croatian midfielder, 24, is currently on loan at Stamford Bridge from Real Madrid but there is no option to buy him as part of the deal.
And according to Tuttosport, Inter are desperate to sign a midfielder to add some creativity into the mix.
They believe Kovacic could be the right man to bring in to provide that and it is understood they are considering a summer move.
However, sporting director Piero Ausilio has also spoken publicly about signing Kovacic’s international team-mate Luka Modric.
Inter tried to sign Modric last summer after his stellar season and World Cup but could not agree a deal with Real Madrid.

The Ballon d’Or winner reportedly rejected a bumper new deal with Los Blancos last week with Inter likely to go in again for him next summer.
Speaking on Wednesday, Ausilio told Sky Sports Italia: “I did not think it was possible to sign Modric, but why not dream?
“I only told who proposed it to me that we were there, that if what they told us was true, they had to talk to Madrid and let us know.
“Honestly, we did not feel ready for a negotiation because we knew our possibilities. Try again? In football today you can never say never.”
Kovacic joined the San Siro club in 2013 from Dinamo Zagreb and spent two seasons with the Italian giants.
Then-Inter manager Roberto Mancini said the club were forced to sell the Croat to Real Madrid due to Financial Fair Play regulations.
Despite a LaLiga title and three Champions League crowns in a row, Kovacic never established himself as a regular starter at the Bernabeu, hence his loan move to Chelsea this season.
He has formed a strong midfield trio under Maurizio Sarri alongside N’Golo Kante and Jorginho but it remains to be seen whether they will still be together next year.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
