Following the departure of Chelsea left-back Filipe Luis back to Atletico Madrid Chelsea had already lined up 21-year-old Ghanaian international Abdul Baba Rahman to replace the outgoing Brazilian, yet reports are suggesting this morning that negotiations have broken down between Chelsea and Bundesliga side after Augsburg, after claims that the Germans wanted big money for the £15 million rated speedster.
Di Marzio is reporting that Chelsea has now turned their attention to Juventus target, 22-year-old Galatasaray left-back Alex Telles.
The highly rated Brazilian defender has been linked with a move away from the Turkish giants for months, and given the fact Chelsea is yet to spend big this summer , money should not be an issue when making Mourinho’s fifth signing of the summer.
