Mateo Kovacic is looking to leave Chelsea this summer

Manchester City are in talks to sign Mateo Kovacic from Chelsea.

The Blues are preparing for a host of summer exits after a disappointing season saw them finish 12th in the Premier League table.

New manager Mauricio Pochettino is eager to trim the West Londoners' bloated squad and will likely not stand in the way of the Croatian midfielder's departure.

The 29-year-old has just one year remaining on his current deal at Stamford Bridge.

According to ESPN, Kovacic has been granted permission to speak to Pep Guardiola's side and it is thought Chelsea would command a fee of £35million.

The 93-cap international has been a key player for the Blues since joining on a permanent basis from Real Madrid in 2019, winning four trophies.

He featured in 27 Premier League games this term, scoring one goal and registering two assists.

Another midfielder who looks set to part ways with Chelsea is academy graduate Mason Mount.

The Telegraph report the Englishman has now agreed personal terms with Manchester United.

Erik ten Hag's side are said to be ready to make a formal offer in a bid to get the deal completed quickly, with the 24-year-old valued at £80m.

Joao Felix has been offered to Newcastle on a loan deal by Atletico Madrid, say the Daily Mail, with Chelsea opting to not make the 23-year-old's move a permanent one.

Elsewhere, The Sun report the Magpies have offered star midfielder Bruno Guimaraes a new £200,000-a-week contract to try and ward off interest from Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Los Blancos could make a move for Tottenham striker Harry Kane this summer, according to The Times, due to Karim Benzema being linked with a big-money switch to Saudi Arabia.
