Chelsea are eying a £27m summer move for on-loan Juventus midfielder Denis Zakaria this summer.

Chelsea can make his transfer permanent for just £27m this summer, which will be sufficiently less than they will pay for other midfield targets like Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham.
He represents a cost-effective option for Chelsea and will allow Chelsea to keep within UEFA’s new Financial Sustainability Rules after spending well over £500 million in the previous two transfer windows.
