Chelsea are eyeing several centre-back options this summer as Thomas Tuchel continues his squad rebuild in the transfer window. The Blues lost the duo of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen as free agents, leaving the side searching for new options in their backline.
Work has already been done to mitigate the issue, with Kalidou Koulibaly joining the club from Napoli. The fee is set at roughly £33million, though Tuchel is said to want more centre-backs in his squad for the upcoming campaign.
football.london understands that the Blues are set to bid for Sevilla's Jules Kounde and PSG's Presnel Kimpembe in the coming week, further bolstering the squad. The former has been a long-term target at Chelsea, though they could be set to battle Barcelona for his signature.
