Brozovic has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge during the transfer window, with Antonio Conte's side reportedly prepared to pay $43 million for his services.
However, the 23 year-old looks set to snub a move to the Premier League and sign a new deal to remain at San Siro.

"But, with it he will earn less than he would have if he had signed for Chelsea, but he feels comfortable in Inter, he knows the city and the club will play in Europa League.
