Chelsea have two young midfielders under consideration ahead of the summer market.

Tuttosport says Chelsea are eyeing a €50m (£43m) move for Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar and have lined up Brescia teenager Sandro Tonali as a back-up option.

The young duo are also said to be of interest to Juventus as well after enjoying impressive seasons at their respective club sides.

Tonali and Aouar are transfer targets for a number of Europe's top clubs.

The report states that Chelsea are “particularly serious" about Aouar and that they view him as “a more offensive Miralem Pjanic".

Juventus are set to rival the Blues for his services and both sides are also monitoring Tonali.
