It looks like Oscar is finally coming to the end of his time at Chelsea. After years of links with Juventus, it looks like Inter may have stolen a march on their Serie A rivals in the pursuit of the Brazilian.

They also claim that Conte had decided to keep Oscar, but having seen him over the first part of the season is now ready to let him go.
The main issue is that it seems that there is no room for him in Antonio Conte’s 343, with both of the players in the front 3 needing to be a little more mobile than Oscar. It suits Hazard and Pedro well, and Willian seems like he will fit it well despite not having had a proper chance there, but Oscar is more of a central player and it’s hard to see him fitting in.
If Chelsea are able to get the £25-30m that has been suggested, it would be pretty good business, as long as it is wisely reinvested.
