Chelsea are in “advanced talks” with RB Leipzig for the 20-year-old’s signature, having submitted an “official proposal” today of “around €90m”.

Transfer
Chelsea have launched a sensational £77million bid to sign RB Leipzig star Josko Gvardiol, according to reports.
The Blues are hoping to complete a deal with only 36 hours to go before the transfer window shuts that will see Thomas Tuchel land one of his top targets, although the Croatian defender would join Chelsea in 2023 as part of the agreement rather than heading to London straight away.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea have offered £77m (€90m) for the former Dinamo Zagreb trainee and the bid is under consideration by the Bundesliga club with just 36 hours of the transfer window remaining, with talks ‘ongoing’ between the two clubs and at an ‘advanced’ stage.
