Chelsea legend Frank Leboeuf has revealed the player Chelsea should have signed in January.

Leboeuf told Chelsea-news: “There is a midfielder that I want to name, a player called Benjamin Andre, he played for Rennes and now plays for Lille, and he’s a real soldier and a warrior.

“The type of player Chelsea desperately needed and he would have been available for £30m at most.

“He’s like Denis Wise, Frank Lampard, Roy Keane, those kind of players. We’ve seen it from Casemiro since he joined United, we’ve seen the difference he’s made. It’s the experience.”
