Atletico Madrid are chasing Inter Milan winger Ricardo Quaresma.
The Portugal international has failed to revive his Inter career since his summer return from a loan spell at Chelsea. Quaresma fears missing out on a place in Carlos Queiroz's World Cup squad - if they get past Bosnia this week.
Atletico sports chief Jesus Garcia Pitarch has been in contact with Quaresma's agent, Jorge Mendes, about a move to Madrid. The midfielder endured an ill-fated spell at Barcelona several years ago and may think twice about a return to Spain.
