Chelsea target Andre Onana’s agent breaks silence on summer transfer with ex-Ajax star shining at Inter Milan
ANDRE ONANA’S agent insists the Chelsea target is happy at Inter Milan.
Incoming Blues’ boss Mauricio Pochettino fancies the £40million-rated Cameroon hero as his No1 keeper next season.

But Onana’s representative Albert Botines claimed the former Ajax star, 27, is NOT thinking about departing the Champions League finalists.
Botines told Italy’s TV Play: “Transfer market rumours are normal at this stage.
“But I prefer not to talk about it because it’s very early and now the boy is focused only on the pitch.
“We have a five-year contract with Inter. He has another four years on his contract and now he is focused only on the Serie A final and the Champions League final.
“He still has a long contract, don’t worry. He’s very happy, he’s playing for the strongest team in Italy.”
Kepa Arrizabalaga has regained his first-choice spot at Stamford Bridge, helped by Edouard Mendy suffering injury problems.
But for most of the season Chelsea have been linked with bringing in a new main man between the sticks this summer.
It’s claimed Kepa or Mendy could be offered to Inter in part-exchange.

But Botines’ clear statement suggests that Pochettino might have to look elsewhere.
Alternatives are thought to include include Brentford’s David Raya, Borussia Dortmund star Gregor Kobel and Valencia’s Giorgi Mamardashvili.
