Inter Milan have reportedly indicated that they remain keen to push through a deal for Chelsea midfielder Davide Zappacosta.
Earlier this month, it was suggested that Inter were considering an approach for the wideman, who only left Italy for Chelsea at the end of last summer.
According to Sky Sports News, the player's agent has already met with representatives from Inter in an attempt to fast-track a transfer in the coming weeks.
As it stands, it is unclear whether the Blues are looking to sell the 26-year-old this summer, or are open to a season-long loan agreement a deal to buy next summer.
The report states, however, that Chelsea will expect to receive £17.5m for Zappacosta, which would represent a loss of more than £5m on a player who made 23 starts and 12 substitute outings during the most recent campaign.
Zappacosta still has three years remaining on his contract at Stamford Bridge.
