Aston Villa striker, Jhon Duran has reacted to reports he’s wanted by Chelsea and AC Milan.

The 20-year-old has been used sparingly by Unai Emery, who has Ollie Watkins as his undisputed number one.

Chelsea’s search for a new finisher has now seen them being linked with Duran, who has netted just two goals in 14 games this season.

It’s a rumour we are personally surprised by, and one we doubt will actually happen, although the player himself seems flattered by the prospect of representing the Blues.

“I have my mind on Aston Villa. I am not aware of any interest from AC Milan or Chelsea,” he said.

“They are giant clubs and it would be a pleasure, but I have no knowledge of anything. As a child you dream of playing there.”

Chelsea have also been linked with former Real Madrid, and Liverpool stars, Karim Benzema and Roberto Firmino, but no formal offers have been tabled to their respective clubs in Saudi Arabia.
