Sorry if this has already been covered, ed.

What decision needs to be made over Kovacic? I was under the impression that Inter would try and sell Hernanes before allowing Kovacic to leave?

Thanks

{Ed002's Note - So for one final time:

Even though he has very recently extended his contract and is seemingly happy in Milan, Inter are willing to sell Kovacic for the right price and have spoken with Arsenal, Liverpool, Barcelona and Hertha Berlin about the player. Nikky Vuksan has however said he is aware that Inter and Barcelona have had discussions about some "issues" that would involve Kovacic. To explain, Barcelona were plotting a deal that would see Martin Montoya, Alex Song and/or Pedro Rodrigues move to Inter on loan until January and then will be part of a permanent deal for Kovacic. Whilst this option did not suit Inter originally, it is back under discussion. Hertha Berlin were not willing to pay the price. I am not going to go in to too much detail but Piero Ausilio, Inter's Sporting Director, told a Spanish journalist that Liverpool had made a "funny little joke" with a €10M offer. They have since returned with a further offer that is close to the asking price, and acceptable - but not at the terms Liverpool are offering, so there is no final agreement and Liverpool would need to pay significantly more for the terms to be acceptable to Inter due to lack of hard cash. A representative of the player has been courting Arsenal to make an offer but they have no interest at the asking price. In the interim, as they have been unable to agree a deal, Inter who need to raise funds and sell two midfield players, have made it known that they will look to keep Kovacic if they cannot get the price they want and will make Hernanes available instead - and he was been offered as part of an exchange deal for Kondogbia, but Monaco were not interested. The other midfield player who is available is Guarin.}
