Chelsea are 'exploring the signing' of Lyon and France Under-21s international playmaker Rayan Cherki, according to reports.
The Blues are experiencing another overhaul of the playing squad this summer ahead of Mauricio Pochettino's first season with the club. Christopher Nkunku and Nicolas Jackson have already been signed while a host of regular senior players have left such as N'Golo Kante, Kalidou Koulibaly, Mateo Kovacic, Edouard Mendy, Kai Havertz and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
A new attacking playmaker is one position that will require attention in the coming weeks. Mason Mount is on the verge of completing a £60million move to Manchester United after the two sides agreed on a deal, football.london understands.
