Chelsea are reportedly weighing up rivalling Tottenham for the transfer of Inter Milan midfielder Matias Vecino this summer.

Spurs have made an enquiry about the Uruguay international, but Chelsea could also try to snap him up in a smart exchange deal involving Davide Zappacosta moving in the opposite direction, according to Calciomercato.

Vecino has shone in Serie A and Calciomercato claim possible incoming Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has long been an admirer of his.
