Chelsea are interested in signing Inter Milan winger Antonio Candreva
The 30-year-old was linked with a deadline day move to Chelsea in the January transfer window, but Inter Milan apparently turned down the Blues' offer.
However, Italian newspaper Gazetta dello Sport claim Antonio Conte has renewed his interest in bringing Candreva to Stamford Bridge.
It is claimed Conte personally called Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio to enquire about securing Candreva's signature in the summer.
And Conte apparently said to the Inter chief: "I want Candreva, there's £21.5m for you."
Conte is keen to secure a reunion with Candreva after working with him during his time as Italy manager as he bids to add some width to his attacking line for the 2017-18 Premier League season.
Candreva, who signed for Inter in an £18.4m move from Lazio last summer, has scored eight goals in 37 appearances across all competitions this season.
