Chelsea are ready to table a bid for Atalanta fullback Robin Gosens.

The 26-year-old has played a major role in the Serie A club's successful season in both Italy and Europe, with the Bergamo club sitting in third place and looking ahead to a Champions League quarter-final against PSG.

Kicker says Blues manager Frank Lampard is keen on signing the Dutch-German defender, ahead of Leicester City full-back Ben Chilwell.

The west London club are among a host of top European clubs looking to pen Gosens' signature this summer.

The same report says that Juventus are willing to pay the £27million asking price slapped on by Atalanta, while Inter Milan are keen to add Gosens to their squad having already signed Dortmund right wing-back Achraf Hakimi this summer.

There is also significant interest from German clubs, with Schalke long-term admirers of the 26-year-old.
