Chelsea ‘have already been in touch with Barcelona play-maker’ over summer move

There are one or two names who keep popping up reported to be potential Chelsea targets for the summer, and there is some more news on one of them today.

According to Spanish publication SPORT, Chelsea representatives have already been in touch with Barcelona play-maker Philippe Coutinho over a summer move.

The former Liverpool player has been linked with Chelsea a lot over recent months, and now the claims are being took even further.

Coutinho has had a mixed time since making his big money move to Barcelona, struggling with form and ending up being loaned out to Bayern Munich.

As well as Chelsea, Tottenham, Manchester United, Arsenal and Leicester City have all been linked to having an interest in the player.

Yesterday it was said that a fee of £70 million should be enough to sign Coutinho from Barcelona this summer for any potential suitors.

Another saga that will be interesting to watch unfold.
