Mateo Kovacic has admitted publicly that he expects to leave Chelsea in the close season with Manchester City said to be his closest suitors.
Speaking to Croatian magazine, Nacional, while away on international duty, he said: “I have one more year with Chelsea, this season was very bad.
“Everything is going towards the fact that after 5 good years I will change, but in football anything can happen. Right now, I’m focused on Croatia and the Nations League.
“Manchester City is a top team and deserves to be in the Champions League final. That’s what I have to say. The summer is long, we’ll see what happens.
“Chelsea is phenomenal for me. I love the city and the fans, they love me, and I have wonderful memories of Chelsea. We’ll see what happens.” – Sky Sports
