The coronavirus pandemic has made the transfer market uncertain -- and you can find out when the windows open and close here -- but here are the rumours floating around Europe's big leagues and beyond.

TOP STORY: Inter Milan desperate for Kante

Calciomercato is reporting that Inter Milan are willing to go to great lengths in order to sign Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante this summer.

Current Inter boss and former manager for the Blues, Antonio Conte, is apparently desperate to sign a player who was an integral part of Chelsea's Premier League triumph in the 2016-17 season.

However, Chelsea will only accept a bid of at least £60 million, says the report, with Inter open to offloading Joao Mario, Ivan Perisic and Dalbert Henrique to fund the move.

09.50 BST: Highly coveted forward Ansu Fati has no intention of leaving Barcelona any time soon, says his father. The Spain international is tied to Barca until June 2022 and has a €170 release clause. Fati, 17, recently changed agent, with Jorge Mendes now representing him instead of Rodrigo Messi, Lionel Messi's brother.

"Ansu is very happy, he is at Barca, the best club in the world." Bori Fati said. "I'm calm. He is happy at Barcelona. He is 17, he is enjoying himself, he is happy at Barcelona and not thinking about anything else. It's very clear what Ansu wants."

09.11 BST: Germany international Julian Draxler has hinted at a move away from Paris Saint-Germain. Having played 180 minutes for the national team in the two 1-1 draws with Spain and Switzerland, Draxler said his attention would now shift to his future at club level.

"If I knew anything, I'd tell you," Draxler said when asked on ZDF whether he would consider leaving the Ligue 1 champions to get more playing time. "I focused on the Champions League and the national team. That's why we are all full of anticipation."

Under contract until 2021, Draxler said he would either let his deal run down or move on in the summer transfer period. "It would be difficult in the winter break," he added. "With just six months left on the contract. PSG would not allow me a free transfer then."

08.30 BST: Luis Suarez's representatives contacted Atletico Madrid last week to find out if they'd be interested in signing the Barcelona forward, according to Cadena COPE. ESPN has reported that Suarez is now close to joining Juventus, after new Barca coach Ronald Koeman told him he was no longer needed at Camp Nou. COPE claims Atletico coach Diego Simeone spoke to the Uruguayan personally -- but the La Liga club couldn't take on his financial demands.

Suarez is in the process of acquiring Italian nationality, according to reports. The forward, who is tied to Barca until June 2021, still has to terminate his contract with Barca. Sky Italia claims the 33-year-old will undergo in the next few days an exam to tests his level of Italian as part of the requirements to get nationality, a move that is possible thanks to Suarez's wife, Sofia Balbi, who is of Italian descent.

PAPER ROUND

Coutinho set to stay at Barcelona

Barcelona manager Ronald Koeman has told the club he wants to keep hold of Philippe Coutinho, Marca reports.

While the Brazil international has enjoyed flashes of brilliance during his loan spell with Bayern Munich, the same can't really be said for his tenure at the Camp Nou. Koeman is ready to give the player another chance to prove himself, and the possibility of another loan move for the ex-Liverpool sensation has now been ruled out.

The only way that he would be leaving this summer is if a club came in with a huge permanent offer, but that isn't expected to happen due to the financial restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

AC Milan close in on Bakayoko?

Serie A side AC Milan are edging closer to completing the signing of Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko, Corriere dello Sport reports.

After a great deal of back and forth between the two clubs over the specifics of the deal, here is now said to be a "general agreement" that should facilitate this transfer getting done.

While he is clearly surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea have spent plenty of time dragging their feet over this move, but Bakayoko is said to be working closely with them to try and speed up the process.

Tap-ins

- Liverpool forward Sheyi Ojo looks set to sign for Cardiff City on loan, the Liverpool Echo reports. The 23-year-old is way down the pecking order at Anfield and after six loan spells away from the club, he's now on the verge of making it seven with both Ojo and Liverpool viewing a stint with the Bluebirds as a better option than Nottingham Forest, the other side in the running.

- The Daily Mail is reporting that Sheffield United are set to complete the double signing of Derby County stars Jayden Bogle and Max Lowe. The two full-backs were left out of the Rams' Carabao Cup squad this past weekend and with the new domestic season in England getting underway in just a matter of days, Chris Wilder is getting busy as he aims to secure both men for a fee of £11m.
