Last summer, Chelsea rented midfielder Mateo Kovacic from Real Madrid for one season.

At the same time, none of the parties reported that the buyback option was included in the transaction, so Londoners will have to negotiate the acquisition of a Croat if they want to sign it on a full-fledged basis..

“It’s too early to talk about it even though I’m very happy at Chelsea,” said Kovacic.

"It's nice to go out regularly.

I feel a little tired, because I'm not used to playing every three or four days, and here, besides, very demanding football, but I get pleasure from it ".

"We have a great team, great fans and I really like London, it's a beautiful city. My family also likes it here, but for me this is the most important thing. ".

This season, Kovacic played for Chelsea ten matches in all tournaments in which he gave one assists.
