Manchester United are interested in signing Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah.
According to TEAMtalk, United are considering making a move for Trevoh Chalobah and the player is keen to remain in England if possible.
In terms of how much he could cost, the same outlet claims that Chelsea want a fee of around £45m for their central defender.
If Chalobah does go on to depart Stamford Bridge next year, there is a possibility that the Blues will bring in a new centre-back.
Chalobah is yet to play a game under Mauricio Pochettino this season, with the 24-year-old currently out injured.

United being interested in Chalobah, as TEAMtalk has reported, does make sense.
They have a lot of injuries in defence, which has resulted in 35-year-old Jonny Evans getting game time at Old Trafford this season.
Chalobah can play at centre-back and right-back, so he could prove to be quite a useful player for Erik ten Hag overall.
The former England U21 international is likely to get more game time at United than at Chelsea as well.
When everyone is fit, Mauricio Pochettino is obviously not short of options, with the Argentine having the likes of Thiago Silva and Axel Disasi to call upon.
Ultimately, then, a move to Old Trafford could be great for Chalobah. And having sold Mason Mount to the Red Devils during the summer, Chelsea do seem open to doing business with their Premier League rivals.
It is a transfer where we think everyone could win and it will now be interesting to see if United actually do make an approach for the Chelsea defender.
Whatever the case, Chalobah probably does need to leave Stamford Bridge in the new year, as he is unlikely to get much game time under Pochettino.
