Chelsea have held productive talks with Inter over the futures of Romelu Lukaku, Kalidou Koulibaly and Andre Onana, 90min understands.
Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio recently arrived in London to continue negotiations with Chelsea, who are looking to sign goalkeeper Onana and are hopeful of sending both Lukaku and Koulibaly back in the opposite direction.
While no agreements have been reached thus far, sources close to the situation have told 90min that the meeting was productive and has given both sides a better idea of their demands.
The most high-profile topic of discussion was Lukaku, who is due to return to Chelsea this summer following the expiry of his loan with Inter.
Inter have confirmed their desire to keep Lukaku, who they sold to Chelsea for £97.5m just two years ago, and talks over such a deal will continue. The Blues want a permanent departure but the cost of such a transfer would be tough for Inter.
Lukaku also has interest from Saudi Arabia but has made it clear that his top priority is to remain with Inter.

The Serie A side also hope to strike a deal to sign centre-back Koulibaly on loan, but the 31-year-old's high wages also pose an issue to any move and either Chelsea or Koulibaly would likely have to contribute.
Blues co-owner Todd Boehly has also alerted sides in Saudi Arabia to Koulibaly's availability and the player himself is understood to be considering his options.
In the opposite direction, Chelsea hope to strike a deal to sign goalkeeper Onana but now face rival interest from Manchester United, who are looking for more competition for David de Gea,
United, managed by Onana's former Ajax boss Erik ten Hag, are tracking developments with Chelsea and Inter are hopeful of sparking an auction which would raise the goalkeeper's price.
