Chelsea to bid £35 million for Ligue 1 star

Jean Michael Seri has drawn interest from many top clubs

Chelsea will likely to add reinforcements in the summer in order to rebuild the team after their poor domestic campaign this season. They will prioritize improving the midfield as their last summer signings Danny Drinwater and Tiemoue Bakayoko failed to deliver.

Chelsea are prepared to bid £35 million for Nice midfielder Jean Michael Seri, according to the Mirror. The Blues have made him their one of the top transfer targets this summer and wants him to pair him N’Golo Kante.

Other top European clubs like Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal are also linked with the 26 year old. Barcelona also made a bid for him last summer with the player also wanted to join the Spanish giants, Nice rejected that offer as they wanted to keep him.

According to reports, the Ivory Coast star is willing to join Chelsea but he won’t make a decision to join them until Antonio’s Conte future is sorted. The Italian is tipped to leave this summer after a poor campaign. The midfielder likely to hold out until he knows who will be the new manager next season.

Chelsea are aware of interest from other clubs and that’s why they are making early approaches for him.
