Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Olympique Lyonnaise attacker Rayan Cherki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Blues are in the market for a new attacking midfielder this summer following the departure of Mason Mount, and Christian Pulisic and Cherki has emerged as potential target. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 19-year-old Frenchman has been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge recently following his impressive performances for Lyon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cherki, who sees his contract at the Groupama Stadium expire in 2025, featured 34 times for Olympique Lyonnais in Ligue 1 last season, contributing ten goals. He has quickly established himself as a key component in Blanc’s starting lineup, and his impressive performances have attracted the interest of Mauricio Pochettino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
