Josko Gvardiol looks like Chelsea’s next top defender target.
After chasing Jules Kounde for a long time, we’ve turned our attention to Gvardiol, who is developing into a really superb central defender at RB Leipzig.
A deal for the summer looks to be gradually coming together – but it won’t be easy. TuttoMercatoWeb today report that Juventus and Tottenham are also watching the emerging defender.
We’ve also seen plenty of him at this World Cup to convince us that he’s a top class player – and we can understand the widespread interest. He’s just 20 but looks like a top player already, with plenty of room to grow.
It’s never good to have competition for any player you want to sign, but in this case we’re confident we can get the Croatia star if we really want him, and the Italian side will only have a chance if we feel that Leipzig are asking too much.
