Inter are preparing to attempt to sign Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma on a six-month loan deal.

With the inability of recent addition Nemanja Vidic to cement a place in Inter’s starting centerback pairing, Mancini believes that he can provide Zouma more playing opportunities while shoring up the Nerazzurri’s shaky defending.

Zouma, whenever given the opportunity, has played at a high level for a 20-year-old with limited playing opportunities. However, with the experienced John Terry and Gary Cahill leading Chelsea’s defensive line there are few opportunities for Zouma to play first team football and develop.

According to the Telegraph, Chelsea are unlikely to accept a loan deal for their third-choice centerback because they feel that if he were allowed to leave, they would not have adequate defensive cover.

If Inter are unable to sigh Zouma they will attempt to land Palermo’s Ezequiel Munoz.
