According to Voetbalnieuws.be, Chelsea have already contacted the management of Aleksandar Stankovic. If Inter does not exercise their buy-back option, Club Brugge could hope for a transfer fee of more than 40 million euro. Inter will have the right to 50% of the profit in a resale by Club Brugge this summer, and if Club Brugge receives 40 million euro, Inter will receive 15.25 million euro.

It is reported that Chelsea has contacted the management of 20-year-old Serbian defensive midfielder Aleksandar Stankovic. Chelsea's interest is contingent on Inter not exercising a buy-back clause, and Arsenal has also contacted the player's representatives. Inter has a €23 million option to re-sign Stankovic from Club Brugge, and it is considered very likely that the Serie A leaders will activate it.
