Southampton and Norwich are both eyeing up a potential swoop for Chelsea centre-back Marc Guehi next month.
As reported by The Daily Mail, Guehi could leave Chelsea on loan in January, with Southampton and Norwich both having made contact with the club over a deal.
The report claims that several Championship clubs are also keen, with Nottingham Forest, Bristol City and Swansea showing an interest in the England under-21 international.

Guehi has yet to experience senior football on a regular basis, with two first-team appearances for Chelsea in his career, so a loan move could do him the world of good. He needs to get some experience under his belt and a Championship loan would be ideal for him. Southampton and Norwich are in a dogfight at the bottom of the Premier League, which is not the best place for a 19-year-old to go in and try to learn his trade.
You do not want his first taste of senior football to be losing every week followed by a potential relegation. Instead, you can send him to a top Championship side and get him in the flow of winning matches and playing against physical teams each game.
