Bayern Munich defender Demichelis on Chelsea's radar

The agent of Martin Demichelis claims the Bayern Munich defender is attracting interest from several clubs including Chelsea. The Argentina international has admitted he wants to leave the Bundesliga champions after being left out of their side to face Wolfsburg last Friday.

Juventus are reportedly favourites for Demichelis' signature and his representative Jorge Cyterszpiler admits talks have taken place.

"I have always had an excellent relationship with Juve," the agent told calciomercato.it.

"We spoke with Juventus, but they are not the only club interested.

"There are at least four clubs in for the player, as well as the Bianconeri there are also Barcelona, Chelsea and Sevilla."

Cyterszpiler believes a loan move might be more likely than a permanent switch, saying: "At the moment Bayern don't want to sell.

"In Italy there is also Fiorentina, Napoli and Roma that have always liked him, but it is outside their budget."
