Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund is being linked with a move to the Premier League.
Chelsea appear to have the strongest interest in the Denmark international's signature.
Hojlund is a self-confessed Manchester United supporter, but The Mail states that the Blues may have the upper hand in transfer talks.
The club are determined to secure a centre forward for the new season, regardless of who is manager.
Club executives invited Atalanta chairman Antonio Percassi to a recent Champions League game against Borussia Dortmund.
The Serie A club are demanding £60 million if they are to part with Hojland.
