Chelsea is attempting to derail Inter Milan’s efforts to extend the contract of Marcelo Brozovic. The player is keen to sign a new long-term deal. The club believes it would benefit them.

The most recent article from FC Inter News provides an update on Marcelo Brozovic’s future with the club. In the Italian market, the Inter Milan midfielder is in high demand due to the expiration of his current contract. It puts a number of teams throughout Europe on the lookout for a replacement.

According to the source, Brozovic is focused on extending his time at Inter. He is keen on staying in the city of Milan. The two sides are even planning to meet to discuss the possibility of a new agreement. Chelsea, on the other hand, seems to be making a last-ditch effort to get the veteran midfielder to the Premier League. That is despite the fact that they are up against stiff competition from Paris Saint-Germain.

Brozovic, on the other hand, is no stranger to Premier League intrigue. He has previously been linked with moves to both Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur among others. With his extensive playing experience at the highest level of football, as well as his contributions to Inter’s success, he seems to have emerged as a desirable choice on the transfer market.

Indeed, the Croatian international has appeared in over 250 competitive matches for the Nerazzurri. His most notable contribution coming in the Nerazzurri’s Scudetto triumph last season. He was also a member of the Croatian national squad that made history by reaching the final of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.

Will Brozovic be a good addition to the Blues team which is already loaded with superstars?

Chelsea’s pursuit of Marcelo Brozovic, on the other hand, is most likely motivated by a lack of depth in the squad. While players like Jorginho and N’Golo Kante have performed well, the club does not have any credible options to replace them. Also worth mentioning is the fact that Jorginho’s agency hinted about a possible return to Italy earlier this summer.

Therefore, head coach Thomas Tuchel will undoubtedly welcome the arrival of someone like Brozovic. He can bring a lot of experience to the team while also dominating the midfield. He can also provide providing enough protection for the defenders.

At the age of 28, the Inter Milan star may not be a promising long-term investment. That is, as other targets in Aurelien Tchouameni’s portfolio. Although he has little playing time, his expertise may be crucial. This being as Chelsea strives to win the Premier League and establish themselves as one of the most dangerous teams in European football.

Accordingly, the Blues are currently contemplating making a serious approach to investigate the possibilities of acquiring Brozovic from the New York Knicks. In the interim, they are concentrating their efforts on the acquisition of a new centre-back. Niklas Sule of Bayern Munich has lately been mentioned as a possible transfer target. The German’s contract with the Bundesliga club ending at the conclusion of the current season.
