Chelsea are currently in talks with Monaco over a potential deal worth over £30m for Badiashile.
The winter transfer window is around the corner and Chelsea’s pursuit of Monaco and France U21 international Benoît Badiashile is “definitely one to look out for” at Stamford Bridge.
Blues head Graham Potter heads into his first transfer window and he looks to build the squad for the rest of the season.
The west London side are looking to compete for the top-four finish as they have struggled this season in Premier League.
As per The Athletic’s David Ornstein, Potter’s men are currently in talks with Monaco over a potential deal worth over £30m for Badiashile to join the Blues outfit in the new year.
The transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has now claimed that the West London club are in advanced negotiations over a deal for the 21-year-old.
Journalist Jacque Talbot spoke to GiveMeSport in the summer that the center-back could have been an alternative for Sven Botman at Newcastle United.
Jones told GiveMeSport: “They’re looking at this rebuild with an eye on young talent. Man Utd have had an eye on him too at one stage. He’s got a lot of people in the game talking very highly and they’ve been very impressed by him. So, it’s definitely one to look out for.”
France U21 international has played 16 times for Monaco so far this season, scoring two goals in a campaign in which he has been a regular in the Ligue 1 side’s backline.
