Premier
League
champions
Manchester
City
are
reportedly
interested
in
signing
Mateo
Kovacic
from
Chelsea.
The
Croatia
international
is
in
the
final
18
months
of
his
contract
and
is
yet
to
enter
talks
with
the
Blues
over
a
new
deal.

Kovacic’s
situation
at
Chelsea
has
already
alerted
some
of
the
biggest
clubs
in
Europe,
including
Premier
League
champions
Manchester
City.
Matt
Law
of
The
Telegraph
claims
that
Pep
Guardiola
is
keeping
tabs
on
Kovacic’s
situation
at
Stamford
Bridge.
The
Spaniard
is
interested
in
working
with
the
midfielder
and
will
make
a
move
for
him
in
the
summer.

Chelsea
are
looking
to
bolster
their
midfield
and
could
decide
to
cash
in
on
the
Croatian
in
the
summer.
They
signed
him
from
Real
Madrid
in
2018
on
a
season-long
loan
and
made
the
deal
permanent
during
their
transfer
ban
in
2019.

Kovacic
has
been
brilliant
for
the
Blues
since
joining
but
has
lately
been
on
the
sidelines,
often
due
to
injuries
and
illness.
He
is
yet
to
be
offered
a
new
deal
and
reports
suggest
that
Graham
Potter’s
side
are
not
close
to
handing
him
a
new
contract.

Kovacic
has
been
most
impressive
for
the
Blues
since
his
move
to
Chelsea
from
Real
Madrid
back
in
2018.
The
Croatia
international
initially
joined
the
Stamford
Bridge
outfit
on
a
season
loan
before
his
move
was
made
permanent
in
2019
for
£40
million.
