Juventus, Borussia Dortmund to bid for Chelsea defender Christensen

Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen could yet be on the move in the next 48 hours.

The Sun says Juventus and Borussia Dortmund are both ready to launch late bids for Christensen this week.

Christensen angered the Italian by disappearing from the bench for a toilet break for the final minutes of Chelsea's defeat at Arsenal.

And now his spell in SW6 could be coming to an end with the two Champions League sides keen to land him before the deadline.

Juventus are seeking extra defensive strength after letting Mehdi Benatia leave for Qatari side Al-Duhail.

And Dortmund, who face Spurs in the last 16 next month, are seeking reinforcements at the back to strengthen their Bundesliga title charge.

Christensen is keen to leave for first team football after making just one league appearance this season, in the shock defeat at Wolves last month.
