Chelsea may be able to solve two huge first-team problems in the January transfer window with a deal for Enzo Fernandez possibly helping the Blues acquire a Reece James backup. The 23-year-old defender suffered another knee injury in Chelsea's Premier League return against Bournemouth with the club confirming he is set to spend a month out.
Todd Boehly looks set to push for a backup option in January for James following his latest issue, with interest possibly being reignited in Inter star Denzel Dumfries following his World Cup exploits for the Netherlands.
According to a report from Sport Italia, Chelsea are set to make a concrete attempt to sign Dumfries from Inter in January. Following his World Cup performances, £53million is the asking price to even begin negotiations exploits but the report notes that it is unlikely Boehly will be put off by that fee.
