Nottingham Forest are reportedly interested in signing Chelsea centre-back Levi Colwill this summer as the Blues target more defensive reinforcements for Thomas Tuchel's squad.
The Daily Mail claim that Tuchel is yet to make a decision on Colwill's future, but the club's interest in other defenders suggests that the 19-year-old will struggle for game time at Stamford Bridge next season. Chelsea are said to be 'weighing up plans' for Armando Broja and Colwill as both young players aim to make an impression this pre-season.
Chelsea are thought to be closing in on a deal for Nathan Ake to bring their former defender back to the club from Manchester City. Meanwhile, a deal to bring in Sevilla centre-back Jules Kounde is also expected to be thrashed out, as both clubs still need to agree on a fee.
