Chelsea could be bracing themselves for a battle with Manchester United for the signature of Napoli defender Elseid Hysaj.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, United are considering a move for the defender as an alternative to Alex Sandro.
Sandro continues to be linked with a move away from Juventus, but reports in Italy claim the player is in talks to extend his deal with the Old Lady.
Chelsea themselves have been linked with a summer swoop for Hysaj, with Maurizio Sarri expected to be announced as Antonio Conte’s successor.
Hysaj is known to have a release clause in his contract with the Naples club, something Sarri could look to exploit if and when he takes over at Stamford Bridge.
With Chelsea thought to be closing in on a deal for Sarri, Hysaj is not the only Napoli player being linked with a move. Long-term Chelsea target Kalidou Koulibaly remains a target, while Raul Albiol and Piotr Zielinski have also been discussed.
