Chelsea have already got a seal of approval from Pep Guardiola over transfer target Matheus Nunes.
The Sporting Lisbon star has quickly zoomed up the shortlist at Stamford Bridge as they look to bolster their ranks this summer under new owner Todd Boehly. The American billionaire has promised Thomas Tuchel up to six signings with links to Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar, but there has yet to be one arrival.
While defence and attack are areas that that need immediate surgery, the midfield has not been forgotten where N'Golo Kante and Jorginho are entering the final year of their contracts. Chelsea have missed out on Aurelien Tchouameni, who joined Real Madrid, while West Ham have demanded as much as £150million for Declan Rice.
