Transfer gossip: Chelsea again linked with Marquinhos and Kante

A round-up of the latest transfer speculation involving Chelsea…

Paris St-Germain defender Marquinhos has once again been linked with a move to Chelsea.

The Daily Star declare that the 21-year-old Brazilian is set to spark a ‘Premier League transfer brawl’ this summer.

It comes after Spain-based transfer-gossip website Fichajes.net claimed Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are looking to sign him.

Meanwhile, the Daily Mail believe another player Chelsea are reportedly keen on, N’Golo Kante, has a £20m release clause in his Leicester City contract.

Arsenal, Tottenham and PSG are also said to be interested in the midfielder.

The Sun pick up on Tuesday’s reports that Chelsea are looking to sign Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos, suggesting it could mark the end for John Terry at Stamford Bridge.

And Eden Hazard has denied reports he has agreed a move from Chelsea to Real Madrid.

Speaking to Belgian television, Hazard said: “Have I signed for Real? No, that’s not true, I do not know who said that.

“For now, I am at Chelsea. I have a season to finish, and my contract ends in four years. For now, I’m here and I want to get back on the field with Chelsea.”
