Chelsea have already signed Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner and will be looking to sign more players in the summer.
However, Chelsea are close to sign Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Kai Havertz this summer
Frank Lampard’s side secured Champions League qualification on the final day of the Premier League season and will look to strengthen ahead of the new campaign.
However, the Blues have moved to deny that transfer supremo Marina Granovskaia has been acting unprofessionally in trying to secure a deal for Havertz. Rumours claim she has been speaking to contacts in Germany trying to work out the weak points in Leverkusen’s setup.
Chelsea have issued a strong statement in defence of Roman Abramovich’s chief transfer negotiator.
“We vigorously deny these suggestions; these claims are a complete fabrication,” a Chelsea spokesman told the Press Association.
Granovskaia oversees transfer negotiations at Stamford Bridge and has a reputation as one of the most powerful women in the sport.
