Chelsea are unlikely to sign Ivan Rakitic this summer.

The player's agent has suggested that he is likely to remain at Barcelona for the foreseeable future.

The 30-year-old is a key figure for the Catalan giants, starting almost every game.

He has been there since 2014, winning multiple league titles.

"Ivan wants to leave Spain in the summer? That's impossible," his representative Arturo Canales told Sport.

Rakitic has also been linked with Inter Milan.

His contract at Barcelona runs out in 2021, while it has a release clause of €125 million.
