Chelsea are among a 'handful of clubs' showing interest in RB Leipzig's talented defender Josko Gvardiol ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window. According to a report from 90Min, the Blues are just 'keeping tabs' on the 20-year-old at this stage.
Gvardiol played 45 times in all competitions across the 2021/22 season for Leipzig after joining last summer for around £17million from Dinamo Zagreb. In that time, the Croatian centre-back has established himself as one of European football's most exciting defensive prospects.
Back over two months ago, the Leipzig defender was quick to rubbish any speculation over his future and insisted he was happy playing his football at the Red Bull Arena. "I really enjoy every day with this great team at this first-class club," Gvardiol said to BILD via Buli News.
