Chelsea have made an offer for Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma.
Chelsea approached Tottenham about signing the midfielder and were willing to include Hakim Ziyech in a deal, says the Telegraph.
But it is claimed the Blues were not met with encouragement and could look elsewhere in their pursuit.
Chelsea had an £85million bid for Argentina World Cup winner Enzo Fernandes rejected this month and refused to pay his £106m release clause.
And they look set to move on from the idea of signing Brighton's Moises Caicedo, who is rated at over £65m.
