Olivier Giroud may well get the move he desires after Inter re-entered the race to sign the Chelsea striker on transfer deadline day.
Antonio Conte's side have already agreed a financial package to secure Giroud after offering him a two-and-a-half-year deal with an initial salary of €4 million that will drop to €3.5m for the following two seasons.
The issue has been over the price being negotiated between Chelsea and the Italian giants, with this last-minute push potentially a deliberate ploy from the Serie A club to drive the price down.
