Inter Milan lean on Nike to trump Chelsea for Eto'o

Inter Milan's pursuit of departing Anzhi star Samuel Eto'o has been boosted by their new agreement with Nike. Eto'o's agent, Claudio Vigorelli, met with Chelsea officials yesterday in London and is due for talks with Inter representatives today in Milan.

The Nerazzurri are growing more confident of a sensational return for Eto'o after their €200 million, 11-year agreement with Nike.

Eto'o is a star of Nike's stable and the sportswear giants' are willing to help fund the striker's Inter return.

The Cameroon ace is seeking €4 million-a-year for two years to again pull on the Nerazzurri shirt and the new Nike deal will help Inter meet his demands.
