Chelsea chase Germany under-19 international

Chelsea are continuing to be linked with a number of Europe’s top rising stars.

Kaan Kurt is one of the names of the moment, with the 18-year old becoming quite a sought-after and talked about talent amongst European scouts.

He plays for Borussia Monchedgladbach 11 in the fourth tier of German football, and he has also been capped for the German under-19 international side.

Kurt is mainly a right back or a right midfielder, but he can also play as a left back.

Chelsea and Arsenal are touted as the two clubs keeping a very close eye on his progress, according to The Sun.

The rate of progression though, suggests that he will soon be jumping in to the Monchengladbach first team in the Bundesliga having been a prominent figure throughout the German international youth sides.

He is also eligible to play for Turkey, and they are pretty keen on recruiting him.
