Antonio Candreva came close to leaving Inter to join Chelsea, his agent has revealed, and would not rule out a move at the end of the season.
The 30-year-old winger has been a key player for the Nerazzurri since joining from Lazio in August 2016 and was quickly linked with a move to the Premier League.
Candreva was again rumoured to be on the way out of San Siro in the January transfer window, as his agent said the Italy international would "love" to play in England.
And Federico Pastorello has admitted a switch to Stamford Bridge almost came to fruition in 2017.
