Sky Sports' Joe Shread:
The logic for Chelsea allowing Mateo Kovacic to exit Stamford Bridge - even to one of their Premier League rivals - is easy to understand, given he has just one year remaining on his contract and, at 29, presumably has limited interest in signing up for the rebuilding project in west London.
There will likely be a section of Chelsea supporters that will look at Kovacic’s record of four goals and 13 assists in 142 Premier League matches across five years and think receiving up to £30m for the midfielder is good business.
The Premier League champions have agreed a £30m deal to sign Chelsea's Mateo Kovacic, who has won four major trophies at Stamford Bridge and one year left on his contract. The 29-year-old Croatia international, who has one year left on his contract, is a versatile player who excels at receiving the ball and linking the defence to the attack.
