Inter Milan want to replace outgoing striker Samuel Eto'o with Mauro Zarate, according to the Argentinian's agent.
Eto'o is expected to complete his record-breaking move to Anzhi Makhachkala this week, which will leave the Nerazzurri with a huge void in their frontline.
Diego Forlan has been heavily linked with a move to the San Siro, but Zarate's agent Giuseppe Bozzo says the 2010 European champions are also interested in his client.
Lazio have admitted they would be willing to sell Zarate at the right price, thought to be around €20 million, though Bozzo said Inter have yet to make an official bid.
A potential stumbling block could be Inter's reported desire for a loan arrangement, with Lazio determined to only accept a full sale.
Zarate, 24, scored nine Serie A goals last season to Eto'o's 21 strikes and the Lazio forward's scoring record has never been as impressive as the Cameroon superstar.
