Chelsea and Sassuolo are each preparing new offers to Inter for young midfielder Cesare Casadei, who is also a target for OGC Nice.

This according to Sky Sport Italia transfer market expert Gianluca Di Marzio, who reports on his homepage that the Blues are ready to try and win the race to the 19-year-old’s signature over Nice, whilst the Neroverdi would offer less cash but would be willing to include a buyback clause.

The race for Casadei’s signature appears to be heating up, with Nice looking to be ready to make a significant offer to sign him.

Chelsea are ready to make an offer at least as large as that of the Ligue 1 club, however, and are getting ready make a new bid after having had their initial offer rejected by the Nerazzurri.

Meanwhile, Sassuolo will not offer as much as either Nice or Chelsea, but are hoping that Inter would be convinced by the inclusion of a buyback option in a deal.
