And the midfielder, who has started just nine Premier League games during Jose Mourinho’s second spell with Chelsea, is considered a realistic transfer target by the Nerazzurri.

Thohir is developing relationships with a number of Premier League clubs ahead of a planned summer overhaul at San Siro.

Inter have already secured the signing of free agent Nemanja Vidic, who will leave Manchester United at the end of the season.

Goal also understands City midfielder Javi Garcia is also a target for Inter, but the Etihad Stadium outfit would want to recoup the £16 million spent on the former Benfica man
