Chelsea are reportedly weighing up an approach for Bayern Munich defender Kim Min-jae ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Blues are planning to bolster their central defensive department and they have identified plenty of targets. Min-jae is one of those and he could be signed for around £40 million at the end of the campaign.
The South Korean star is not contemplating an exit at the moment, but he is aware that Bayern will listen to offers this summer. The Blues are set to face competition from Newcastle United for the ex-Napoli man.
Chelsea have struggled to find a settled central defensive combination. The arrival of a new central defender could coincide with the departure of Wesley Fofana, who has been largely injury-prone for the Blues.
The Frenchman joined the club with plenty of hype and potential from Leicester City, but his career has gone downhill amid his injury woes. He has been linked with a possible move to Ligue 1 with Marseille.
