Chelsea have been handed an update in the race for RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol's signature, with the 20-year-old not having a release clause of €45million (£38.6million) as previously reported.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the Croatian will get a big transfer in 2023 with Chelsea working on a deal. Meanwhile, other clubs are also reportedly interested with the Blues' London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham both previously linked with the youngster.
It is understood that Todd Boehly had made a move for Gvardiol in the summer ahead of the 20-year-old joining the following season, however nothing materialised but that hasn't stopped the west London outfit from making a second attempt to swoop for the highly sought after defender.
