According to SportItalia, one of the players who Bertolucci represents that Inter made an inquiry about is Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos.
The Brazilian spent last season on loan with Strasbourg in Ligue 1.
And Inter are keeping tabs on Santos. Particularly considering his age, the 21-year-old is a player the Nerazzurri see as a prospect for the future.
However, SportItalia caution, Bertolucci indicated to Inter that Chelsea are in no rush to sell Santos this summer. Therefore, the price tag for the Brazilian would be high.
Furthermore, Inter are already very well-stocked in midfield. If anything, their plan would be to offload a midfielder, with Kristjan Asllani reportedly heading for the exit door.

Arsenal's €55M-Rated Target Makes Chelsea Decision as PSG Stands to Benefit
Chelsea appear to be leading the race to sign Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig, with Arsenal and Bayern Munich still in the mix for the former Paris Saint-Germain midfielder. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Leipzig paid €80 million for Simons, €55 million of which was paid upfront.

The club has since shifted its focus to a No. 8-No. 10 type who can play centrally, which rules out some of their earlier targets. On Friday, Bayern Munich insider Christian Falk wrote in his latest column about the current situation regarding Simons. 'It's all calmed down at the moment with Christopher Nkunku and Xavi Simons,' Falk wrote. 'The latter is a very hot option for Chelsea. Nkunku is also not particularly high up on the list and will remain that way for as long as a decision is yet to be made on Woltemade.' TalkSPORT recently revealed that Chelsea are preparing an opening bid for the 22-year-old, who is close to reaching an agreement on personal terms. Simons is still holding talks with other clubs, including Arsenal, who remain strongly interested
