Bayern Munich midfielder Michael Ballack is being courted by Internazionale.
The Germany international's future is uncertain as he only has 12 months remaining on his contract at the Allianz Arena.
Ballack has refused to sign an extension and has hinted at a desire to leave Die Bundesliga after next year's World Cup in his homeland.
Reports in Italy claim that Inter are hoping to sign Ballack on a free transfer next summer and have already settled on a general accord with the 28-year-old.
Bayern's top brass are determined to cajole Ballack into signing a new contract and club president, and former Inter star, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has added his voice to the debate.
"We hope to convince Ballack to sign the contract extension and stay with us," said Rummenigge.
"We know about his will to have new experiences. Me, too, at the age of 29 I chose a new experience in Italy.
"Bayern's plans are centred on Ballack and they are the same for the future, too. We will see."
Inter are ready to offer the former Bayer Leverkusen ace a three-year contract but could face competition from Manchester United.
The Red Devils have been strongly linked with the free-scoring Ballack with Sir Alex Ferguson keen to add an experienced midfielder to his squad.
Rumours suggest that United officials will meet their Bayern counterparts in Japan at the end of the month with both clubs playing pre-season friendlies in the capital Tokyo.
