Despite Chelsea boss Antonio Conte confirming he won’t make a move for a defender during the January transfer window, Chelsea are still been linked with a move for a defender.
According to media outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Chelsea are lining up a £16 million bid for Fenerbahce defender Simon Kjaer.
27-year-old Kjaer has scored three goals in 21 appearances for Fenerbahce this season and the report claims Conte sees him as the perfect player to fit in with Chelsea’s 3-4-3.
But with Conte confirming he won’t make a move for a defender in January, this move could just be for the summer.
