According to several sources, including La Gazzetta dello Sport and La Repubblica, Chelsea have stepped up their interest in Candreva.

Inter had long been tracking him and Roberto Mancini pin-pointed the Italy international as his primary transfer target.

However, the increase of the price-tag from €20m to €25m causes problems for a club limited by Financial Fair Play parameters.

Napoli and Atletico Madrid were linked earlier in the summer, but Chelsea are now emerging as genuine contenders for Candreva.
