Chelsea are ready to step up their pursuit of Lyon attacker Nabil Fekir.

Chelsea made enquiries after Fekir last month and now are preparing a summer move for the France international.

Le 10 Sport says Chelsea have identified Fekir as a replacement for Eden Hazard.

With Hazard expected to move to Real Madrid for around €100m - Chelsea are willing to offer €30-40m to Lyon for Fekir as a direct replacement.

The midfielder is now inside the final 18 months of his current deal and still no closer to settling new terms with OL.
