Chelsea, Real Madrid battle for Slavia Prague prospect

Chelsea and Real Madrid are said to be amongst the clubs chasing Slavia Prague's Marek Suchy.

The 19-year-olds agent Pavel Vandas has confirmed that Real Madrid and Chelsea are interested, along with PSV Eindhoven and Schalke.

Vandas claims a number of scouts and club representatives will be tracking Suchy when Slavia face Ajax in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifier on Wednesday.

"At the game there will be one of the coaches of PSV Eindhoven and Schalke representatives have contacted me as well," he revealed to Sport.

"Everything is still at the start, we have not yet held talks but we can expect that Real Madrid and Chelsea representatives will contact us in the next few days."

The player himself insists that he would not move to any club to merely sit on the bench.

"I have not discussed anything with anyone, I leave it to my agent," he said.

"If I were to leave Slavia, then only to a club where I would have a chance to play regularly."
