Chelsea are turning to Barcelona in their search for a new wing-back signing.

Having missed out on former Real Madrid fullback Danilo, who has just signed for Manchester City, Chelsea are eyeing off Sergi Roberto, says Sport.

The Barcelona midfielder shone at right-back for former Barca coach Luis Enrique last season and he is now under consideration at Chelsea.

Indeed, it's suggested Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has already approved a move for Roberto, with plans to meet his €40m buyout clause now underway.

However, a major stumbling block could be the player, who still regards himself as primarily a midfielder rather than a right-back.
