Wolfsburg's Felix Magath has confirmed that they are indeed interested in Bayern Munich's Ivica Olic.
The coach has admitted that his club are monitoring the player as they look to add more firing power to their squad.
With the Croatian International of recent, failing to secure a starting position in the Bundesliga giant's squad, a move away would be considered by foward.
"Olic would fit in here. And as far as I'm aware of the situation, he is open to a move," Magath was quoted as saying by Bild.
But Felix very well knows that it is all up to Bayern Munich, "He will probably play at his last big tournament at Euro 2012 this summer, and he wants to play in the build-up. However, the question is whether Bayern are ready to sell him."
And Bayern Munich earlier this season has already made it known that they are not offloading any players in this January Transfer window.
This means that Wolfsburg would have their work cut out for them, as they would have to maybe produce a more than convincing bid in order to secure the services of the striker.
With Inter looking to bring in more young and talented players it seems highly unlikely that he would be offered a contract by the Italian giants.
The Italian club Genoa will try most likely to sign him on on a free transfer, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports.
It is said that they would offer Chivu a three-year deal with an annual salary of €1.5 million as they look to add experience to their back line.

Rumors also show that Juventus are in the poll position to sign the defender as he favors a move to the Italian club.
But this however hasn't deterred the big spending PSG from giving up as they would be willing to compete for the player, as money wouldn't be an issue.
It is believed that if Martin sign's for the French club, he could be arriving along with forwards Carlos Tevez and Salomon Kalou.
His agent has claimed that Roman
has been offered the chance to move across to QPR.
With the player looking to secure a place in his country's squad for Euro 2012 and not starting any games for the season so far, a move is most likely to happen.
But his agent has said that the striker hasn't made up his mind yet, "Before talking about it - if Roman wants to be a QPR player or not - we have to consider every detail. Roman hasn't thought about it yet."
He would however be a great addition to QPR's strike force and could actually star at the London club.

With the Red Devils beginning the season with a bang, demolishing Arsenal 8-2 it was said that United were going to be a force to reckon with, challenging for all major competitions this term.
How could this of been POSSIBLE?!?!?!?
This is the question many United fans may have asked themselves, as they saw a lackluster Manchester not being able to defeat their opponents.
With Basel making 1 of the biggest upsets in football history, many ask what went wrong for the Red Devils, how could they of not get the result needed from what seemed an easy match.
Well 1 of the answers is overconfidence. When questioned in a press conference after their draw with Benfica at home, about if United were struggling in the Champions League this season, the furious Scot responded by walking out. He was insulted by the suggestion. The irony is tho that his team has been knocked out and now must partake of the not so glamerous Europa League.
What seemed to be as the easiest group to win for United, they were unable to make it out on top. Even Fergie was forcibly forced to admit that "complacency" and "casualness" were displayed in United's performances.
The 2nd problem stems from United's sorry excuse for midfielders with the likes of Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher not performing at their best. Looking at United's 4-1 win over Wolves on the weekend, most of their attacks came through the wing areas and hardly through the center.
And that is where they fall, they fail to link attacking plays through the center and this in turns leaves their whole defense exposed to attacks from their opponents.
This was shown against their rivals, where they were humiliated with a 6-1 defeat.
If Manchester United don't address these problems soon, sad to say we could be looking at a future Liverpool a few seasons ago.

Although the Italian international has been heavily linked with a move to Club A.C. Milan and of recent Juventus, his agent has made it clear that a move is not an option at the moment.
"At the moment, there is nothing happening. There are no options. The interest of AC Milan? That's more speculation in the press than it is a realistic option," Branchini told Sky Sport Italia.
"Fiorentina have declared him unsellable, so I really don't think he will leave in January. Riccardo also has the intention to stay until June and that has to be respected," his agent continued.
A.C. Milan will most likely continue trying for the midfielder in the summer if they fail in January, as they look to replace the gap left by Pirlo.
The 35 year old contract runs out by the end of this season and inquires have already been made by many teams, but surprisingly none from any MLS teams.
However this hasn't deterred the Bayer Leverkusen's midfielder from considering a move to the American League.
"His contract is done in 2012 and of course it is a possibility," his agent Becker revealed to Goal.com.
"He could go back to England but he's already been there," his agent continued.
But Becker However believes he would bring something new to the MLS if brought over.
"With his body type, he's like an American quarterback. He is something definitely different from Donovan or even Beckham. Something the MLS hasn't had yet."

The only concern there would be for American teams in pursuit would be the fitness of the German, with part of his career being plagued with injuries.
