Chelsea are reportedly casting a keen eye over Hoffenheim wing-back Jeremy Toljan.
According to an exclusive report from Goal in recent times, the Blues have sent scouts out to Germany to watch the young wing-back in action for his country in Under-21 matches and have been impressed with what they’ve seen.
The spies from Chelsea are claimed in the report to have specifically focused on Toljan in Germany’s youngster’s contests against England and Portugal as Antonio Conte ponders strengthening the wide areas of his squad ahead of next season.
It’s claimed by Goal that Chelsea could face competition from fellow European heavyweights Bayern Munich and Juventus given their history of scouting him, whilst Serie A outfit Napoli are also stated to have trailed him in recent times.
The 22-year-old’s contract comes to a close in the summer of 2018 and this means that Toljan could move on in the near future for a cut-price fee, with Hoffenheim likely to want to take some money from the player’s potential departure.
