The fee is understood to be worth an initial £25m guaranteed plus £5m in performance-related add-ons. A formal announcement of Kovacic joining last season’s treble winners is expected soon.
Kovacic has been at Stamford Bridge since joining from Real Madrid – initially on loan – in the summer of 2018. The Croatia international has won four major trophies during his time at Chelsea including his fourth Champions League in 2021 – while going on to make 221 appearances for the club. The logic for Chelsea allowing Mateo Kovacic to exit Stamford Bridge – even to one of their Premier League rivals – is easy to understand, given he has just one year remaining on his contract and, at 29, presumably has limited interest in signing up for the rebuilding project in west London.
There will likely be a section of Chelsea supporters that will look at Kovacic’s record of four goals and 13 assists in 142 Premier League matches across five years and think receiving up to £30m for the midfielder is good business.
