Chelsea have had a £32m bid rejected by Valencia for their Portugal international Andre Gomes, according to Sky Sports.

It is understood Valencia are keen to drive up the fee for Gomes, due to a sell-on clause between themselves and his former club Benfica.

It is a stance that has left Valencia and Chelsea approximately £10m apart in their valuation of the player.

Valencia are believed to want to generate £32m from his sale for themselves, and are therefore holding out for approximately £42m.
