Chelsea are working hard to secure a deal for Jules Kounde from Sevilla.

The Spanish giants are open to selling the young French centre-back, but only for a mega fee.

The Blues want to lower the cash portion of the transfer, which is why they first offered defender Kurt Zouma, but he rejected the move.

Now Chelsea are offering outcast Kenedy, per Goal Brasil.

The Brazilian, who is also a target for Flamengo in his home country, could be a makeweight in the Kounde deal if he interests Sevilla.

Kenedy has La Liga experience, as he played for Getafe and Granada during separate loan spells.
