Chelsea, Barcelona and Real Madrid are reportedly keeping a close eye on Marcelo Brozovic's situation at Inter Milan, with the trio keen to sign him this summer.
The 30-year-old only signed a new contract with Inter last year, with his current deal at San Siro due to run until the end of the 2025-26 campaign.
Brozovic has had a frustrating 2022-23 campaign, though, being restricted to just 16 appearances in all competitions, spending long periods on the sidelines with hamstring and calf injuries.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter are open to selling the Croatian in the upcoming market, which has attracted the attention of Chelsea, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
The report claims that 'an important offer' would be considered by the Serie A giants, and the midfielder is also open to seeking pastures new despite recently penning a new deal.

Brozovic moved to Inter from Dinamo Zagreb in 2015, and he has represented the Italian side on 306 occasions in all competitions, contributing 30 goals and 37 assists in the process.
The Croatian has won Serie A, the Coppa Italia and two Italian Super Cups during his time at San Siro, in addition to finishing as a runner-up in the 2019-20 Europa League.
Chelsea have spent heavily over the last two transfer windows but are expected to again be active during the summer market, with at least one central midfielder expected to arrive.
Meanwhile, both Real Madrid and Barcelona will be in the market for new midfielders ahead of next season.

Toni Kroos, Luka Modric and Dani Ceballos only have contracts at Bernabeu until the end of the season, and Brozovic would be a cheaper option than Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham.
Barcelona, meanwhile, could be seeking a replacement for Sergio Busquets this summer, as the former Spain captain only has a deal until the end of the campaign.
Pablo Torre and Marc Casado are both seen as young midfield prospects at Camp Nou, but the former has only played once in the league this season, while the latter has featured just once for the first team in 2022-23.
Largely a defensive midfielder, Brozovic could be a direct replacement for Busquets at Barcelona, with the club captain yet to decide whether he will be penning a new contract.
Brozovic has been capped on 83 occasions by Croatia, including six appearances at the 2022 World Cup.
