Chelsea are set to miss out on England star Jude Bellingham and in-demand RB Leipzig midfielder Konrad Laimer, according to reports.
The Blues remain linked with talents in the middle of the part from across the world ahead of Graham Potter's first transfer window at Stamford Bridge.
Jorginho and Matteo Kovacic, 30 and 28 respectively, occupied the midfield during Chelsea's final match before the World Cup break in their 1-0 defeat to Newcastle.
