Chelsea scouts have been keeping a close eye on the form of Lille winger Nicolas Pepe, according to reports.
French outlet Telefoot claims that the Blues are one of several teams watching the player ahead of the summer transfer window.
Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal, Manchester United and Barcelona have all been credited with an interest in the Ivorian and will challenge the Blues in any potential move.
Pepe has been a key figure for Lille this season, playing a huge role in their push to secure Champions League football for the next campaign.
His impressive form has not gone unnoticed this season and as a result, he is now being heavily linked with moves away from the French club.

Chelsea are preparing for what seems like the inevitable departure of Eden Hazard this summer to Real Madrid and could now coincidently return to the Belgian’s former side to find his replacement.
