Whereas the membership has been adamant the Dutchman is right here to remain, the participant himself could not really feel the identical approach.

There are a number of elements in Kovacic’s favour, most notably his worth. His contract expires subsequent summer time, so the Blues haven’t got a lot leverage if he asks to depart. Kovacic was additionally acquainted with Thomas Tuchel’s system, having labored with him once more in the course of the latter’s time in England.
