Chelsea are launching a bid for Roma defender Kostas Manolas.
A new central defender is high on Antonio Conte's summer wish list following the departure of skipper John Terry.
Greek broadcaster Sport FM 94.6 reports Manolas is near the top of the Chelsea manager's list of targets alongside Juventus' Leonardo Bonucci and Napoli's Kalidou Koulibaly.
And Chelsea will reportedly submit an offer to Roma chiefs for the Greece international.
The Premier League champions' bid will be worth around £42m (€48m).
