Jose Mourinho signed Sneijder during his time in charge at Inter in 2009, and is keen on bringing him to Stamford Bridge.
Meanwhile, new Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal made Sneijder an integral part of his Dutch side and has money to spend on midfield recruits at Old Trafford this summer.
But, as of yet, neither side have been in touch with his employers Galatasaray.
The club’s president Unal Aysal also warned any potential suitors that they’ll be paying top whack for him or Fernando Muslera, the Uruguayan goalkeeper who has been linked with Arsenal.
“With regards to Muslera and Sneijder we have not received an offer for either player,” Aysal told Turkish-Football.com.
“Both these players are very important to our team and as a result we value them accordingly.
“We won’t release these players for any less than our asking price and that has scared a few interested parties away.
“If a club wants either of these players they are going to have to pay up as we are obliged to listen to any offers which meet their release clause.
“If their release clause is activated there is nothing we can do.”
