Chelsea are interested in a move for Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt this summer, according to reports. It comes as the Blues are set for a complete overhaul to their defensive ranks in the transfer window.
That is because Thomas Tuchel is set to lose two first-team centre-backs in Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen, with both contracts expiring this summer. It means that the German manager will have to make a number of additions this summer to freshen up his squad.
Speaking about the upcoming task, he said: “We are hoping [to be back to normal] but at the moment we are not. You ask many times if we have a delay in approaching players and making plans, of course a huge delay.
