Chelsea have locked horns with Tottenham in the race to sign Juventus star Weston McKennie, according to reports. The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League for some time now.
After impressing for the United States in Qatar, the American has only further courted interest in his services. He played a pivotal role in each of his nation's fixtures at the World Cup, guiding Gregg Berhalter's side to the round of 16.
But, despite McKennie's best efforts, Netherland stopped the USA in their tracks with a comprehensive performance. According to Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, he caught Graham Potter's attention and the Blues have now ready to rival Spurs for his signature.
