New Chelsea boss Pochettino targets Real Madrid defender Nacho

New Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino wants a move made for Real Madrid defender Nacho Fernandez.

Nacho is off contract this summer and Pochettino sees him as a replacement for departing captain Cesar Azpilicueta.

Okdiario says Aston Villa and Bayern Munich are also interested, though Nacho is said to be favouring a move to London.

The stopper is ready to leave Real Madrid after feeling underappreciated by coach Carlo Ancelotti.

And early talks with Chelsea reps has left him impressed and open to moving to England.
