Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are still said to be rivalling one another for the signing of Josko Gvardiol from RB Leipzig. The 20-year-old defender was heavily linked with a move to the Premier League in the summer, but a switch failed to materialise after penning a five-year deal with the German giants.
However, the signing of a new contract at the Red Bull Arena look to have been a ploy to earn a greater fee for one of Europe's leading young centre-backs. It's believed that the pair of London clubs face great competition for the Croatia international's services as both Graham Potter and Antonio Conte look to bolster their respective backlines.
According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, Inter Milan have joined the Blues and Spurs in the 'very heated' race to sign Gvardiol.
