According to transfer expert Rudy Galetti, Chelsea have asked for information on Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte.

While defence is not a priority for the Blues right now, Galetti claims Chelsea still have Laporte on a list of potential targets.

The Spain international looks set to leave City this summer after falling down the pecking order at Manchester City.

Galetti says Chelsea are not currently holding discussions to sign Laporte but do have the centre-back on their radar.

Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, the journalist said: “Aymeric Laporte is among the names on the list of Chelsea as a possible reinforcement this summer. No talks are ongoing to date. Chelsea’s aim is to strengthen other roles but, in the past weeks, the Blues requested info on him.”
