A round-up of the latest transfer speculation involving Chelsea…
There continues to be speculation over the future of Eden Hazard after he was recently left out of the Chelsea side.
Hazard, who signed a five-and-a-half-year contract at Stamford Bridge earlier this year, has recently been linked with a move to Real Madrid.
And French newspaper L’Équipe claims the former Lille player has told his Chelsea team-mates that he wants to leave the club and join Real.
Chelsea are competing with Manchester United for the signing of Red Star Belgrade midfielder Marko Grujic, the Daily Mail says.
The 19-year-old, who is regarded as one of Serbia’s best prospects, is one of several players to have been linked with Chelsea in recent months.
Reports that the Blues face competition for him come after a United scout watched Red Star’s local derby against FK Rad Beograd last Saturday.
Meanwhile, the Daily Telegraph reports that Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho’s hopes of adding to his squad have been boosted by Juventus being keen to agree a £16m deal for Juan Cuadrado.
The Colombian has impressed while on loan with Juve and Mourinho has reportedly been told that he must sell players if he is to buy when the transfer window reopens in January.
The Telegraph say Chelsea want £18m for Cuadrado but would be prepared to accept less in order to get a deal done.
