Chelsea winger De Bruyne in Atletico Madrid talks

Chelsea winger Kevin de Bruyne is in talks with Atletico Madrid.

The Daily Mail says De Bruyne's agent has been in Madrid this week for talks with representatives of Atletico Madrid but the Belgian international is still waiting for clear direction from Chelsea about his future.

De Bruyne, 22, has rarely played for Jose Mourinho this season, so will realise he is not a central part of the manager's plans.

But he is not keen to go out on another loan spell and will choose his next move carefully to avoid another situation like the one at Stamford Bridge.

Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen have also declared an interest in the midfielder, who performed well in the Bundesliga on loan at Werder Bremen last season.
