Chelsea have turned to a familiar face in Jules Kounde following Antonio Rudiger's exit to Real Madrid.
Thomas Tuchel will have a new-look defence next season following the German's departure, with Andreas Christensen set to follow suit with a proposed move to Barcelona. Kounde has emerged as the Blues' top target once again after his transfer to Stamford Bridge fell through 12 months ago.
Chelsea were in talks with Sevilla for the duration of the summer window and the defender looked on the verge of joining until the deal collapsed at the final hurdle, much to to the West Londoners' dismay.
