Chelsea remain in the hunt for Roma defender Antonio Rudiger.

Premium Sport says the Blues are still keen on the German international.

It's suggested Antonio Conte is ready to stump up £25.5m for the centre-back as he looks to secure Premier League glory.

Rudiger was heavily linked with a move to the club last season.

But he tore his anterior cruciate knee ligament in training before Euro 2016 and wasn't able to add to his 11 caps for his country.

Roma only paid £11m to sign Rudiger, 23, from Stuttgart.

And the Serie A giants might be tempted to cash in if Chelsea come calling, says the Daily Star.
