Chelsea are now desperate to signs some world-class defenders that could help to solidify Frank Lampard’s side defense after conceding 49 goals so far this season.

However, sources claims that Chelsea are now leading the chase to try and get a transfer deal wrapped up for the man, with a one-year £325,000-a-week contract offer set to be offered when the window opens up.
