Chelsea are being linked with a January bid for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Marco Reus. The Daily Express says the Blues have launched a £25m bid plus Andre Schurrle for Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal target Marco Reus.
Jose Mourinho looks to have stolen a march on his rivals with the tempting bid, and Reus could be plying his trade at Stamford Bridge in the new year after Dortmund boss Jurgen Klopp admitted that the 25-year-old is unlikely to stay with the Bundesliga club.
He said: "We will see [about Reus].
"The most important thing is the story of this club will go on. We'll have to do it with other players."
