Stevan Jovetic

According to reports from The Daily Star, incoming Chelsea manager Antonio Conte wants to sign Manchester City striker Stevan Jovetic during the summer transfer window. 

The Montenegro international is currently on loan at Inter Milan, who have a £12.5million obligation to acquire his services on a permanent basis at the end of the season.

But having mustered up just six goals in Serie A so far this term, the San Siro outfit are already looking to move the 26-year-old on.

According to The Daily Star, that could see Jovetic make a shock switch to Chelsea this summer, with incoming manager Antonio Conte a huge fan of the versatile forward.

He reportedly tried to sign Jovetic whilst in charge of Juventus, but the club’s long-standing rivalry with the 40-cap international’s former employers Fiorentina stood in the way of a potential transfer.

Earlier this season, Jovetic was linked with fellow Premier League outfits Crystal Palace, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham.
