Granada defender Gaston Silva is being watched by Chelsea.

The Uruguay international, 22, is playing on-loan in Spain with Granada this season from Torino.

And TMW says his progress has sparked the interest of Chelsea manager Antonio Conte. The Italian is attracted to Silva's versatility and potential to continue to improve.

The defender stands at 6ft 1in and can play at centre-half and fullback.

Torino are seriously considering recalling Silva in January before selling him on.
