Chelsea reportedly interested in signing Jean-Clair Todibo.
The 23-year-old French footballer has been the subject of several Premier League clubs including Chelsea.
The former Barcelona defender has been putting in impressive displays over the past few seasons and his performances haven’t gone unnoticed.
He was reportedly on the radar of Manchester United this summer and Nice could allow the defender to leave if they receive a suitable offer.
Todibo spent three years with the French outfit and established himself as one of the finest defenders in Ligue 1.
Chelsea doesn’t want to extend Thiago Silva’s deal which expires next summer as the veteran is getting closer to the end of his illustrious career.
The Blues will face competition from the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle United.
But transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has rubbished any Chelsea or Arsenal links and insisted the player won’t make a move this January.
Romano said: “Manchester United were interested in Todibo already last summer as I reported, he’s being scouted since long time,”
“I’m not aware of anything concrete now with other clubs, despite some outlets also linking him with Chelsea and Arsenal. It’s something to watch next summer for sure but now is way too early to predict what will happen with him.”
