The Argentina international has been in sublime form for Inter this season with 13 goals in 22 appearances so far.

Inter are desperate for the 25-year-old to sign a new contract as he has a €100 million (£90m) release clause in his current deal.

Chelsea also face competition from Real Madrid for Icardi.
