According to Sky Sport Italia, Barcelona made an offer for Mateo Kovacic on deadline day but it was rejected by Inter Milan.

"I have just heard of that," Kovacic told reporters on Tuesday. "I don't have a clue so there is no point in me saying anything."

The 20-year-old Croatian midfielder said he feels settled in Italy after recording a hat-trick in a Europa League win last week.

"It took me some time to adapt on new league," said Kovacic. "But I am happy for my first goals, I have to keep going."
