According to Calcio Mercato, Chelsea are targeting Hajduk Split goalkeeper Lovre Kalinic; whilst The Daily Mail report that Tottenham Hotspur will reject any approach from Stuttgart for defender Kevin Wimmer.
25-year-old Kalinic is rated as one of the more exciting talents outside of Europe’s leading top flights and Lazio reportedly intend to make him their No.1 ahead of next season – replacing 32-year-old Federico Marchetti.
But Calcio Mercato report that the Serie A outfit could soon find their interest eclipsed by a number of continental rivals, including Premier League champions Chelsea.
The Blues were forced to sign veteran goalkeeper Marko Amelia earlier this season following a long-term injury to Thibaut Courtois, so they could be targeting the Croatian international as a future third-choice.

Meanwhile, The Daily Mail report that Tottenham Hotspur will not sanction a loan move for summer signing Kevin Wimmer.
The Austrian international has made just three appearances for the Lilywhites across all competitions since his £4.3million arrival from FC Koln and Stuttgart are keen on a loan deal until the end of the season.
But Mauricio Pochettino is reluctant to further hamper his defensive depth, with £8million flop Federico Fazio widely expected to leave White Hart Lane this month – most likely for former club Sevilla.
Resultantly, Spurs will block any approach from the Bundesliga outfit.
