Chelsea transfer news LIVE: Harry Maguire enquiry, Aubameyang terms AGREED, Wesley Fofana ‘not in’ Leicester squad
CHELSEA have made a surprise enquiry for Harry Maguire, according to reports.
The Blues are said to feel they may be in with a chance of landing the out of form Man Utd captain due to the Red Devils’ interest in Christian Pulisic.
They have also reportedly held positive talks with former Arsenal skipper Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, with the parties comfortably reaching a landing zone in contract negotiations.
There is said to be an increasing optimism at Chelsea and Barcelona that a deal can be done, but the Blues are not ready to reach Barcelona’s £25m asking price.
Aubameyang is said to be regarded as a stopgap until next summer, when Chelsea will reportedly look to sign top target Christopher Nkunku of RB Leipzig.
It is also reported that Chelsea have agreed terms with Wesley Fofana, though are yet to reach an agreement with Leicester.
Fofana is now said to be keen to force the issue and has reportedly asked to be left out of the Leicester squad.
