Inter Milan kept a close eye on Atletico Madrid defender Jose Gimenez while he played against Chelsea in the Champions League, and are reportedly looking to beat Arsenal to his signature.
Gimenez is out of contract in the summer and could be a target of several clubs, including Arsenal. However, it seems Inter Milan are looking to get ahead of the competition.
According to Corriere dello Sport, their sporting director, Piero Ausilio, was at Stamford Bridge to watch the Uruguayan in action against Chelsea.
Atletico are trying to tie him down to a new long-term contract, and have been giving him more first-team appearances this season to convince him to stay.
