Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel is keen on reuniting with his fellow countryman Jonas Hofmann. They worked together in Borussia Dortmund when Tuchel was the coach before he moved to Paris Saint Germain. Currently, Jonas is playing his professional football in Borussia Monchengladbach.
According to a report released by kicker, several clubs such as Tottenham are also interested in acquiring the services of this world-class midfielder.
His current contract expires in 2023 but the club is willing to offload him if the right price is offloaded this transfer summer. Jonas has been very instrumental for Borussia Monchengladbach this season.
He has scored 9 goals and provided 11 assists in just 26 league appearances. Tuchel is keen on boosting his squad, especially in the midfield area so that he can be able to rotate his squad well.
In other news, Chelsea director Mariana Granovskaia has already started talks with the former Manchester United striker Romero Lukaku. The striker is keen on making a return to Chelsea this transfer summer.
