NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you all the latest transfer news from Stamford Bridge.
 
Chelsea are "neck and neck" in the race to sign Antonio Rudiger from Stuttgart, according to Talksport.
The Germany international has also attracted interest from Arsenal, while Roma have previously enquired about a loan deal.
However, Blues boss Jose Mourinho is reported to be willing to pay £20million to land the 22-year-old on a permanent transfer.
 
The club will also have to dig deep if they want to sign Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann.
Griezmann, 24, has agreed a new deal with the Atletico, according to AS, and the £41.6m buy-out clause in his contract has been "significantly" increased.
The France international has been on Chelsea's radar since the beginning of the transfer window.
 
Elsewhere, Kenedy is expected to complete his £6.7m move from Fluminense this weekend.
The club have been trying to secure a work permit for the 19-year-old for a number of weeks but he could now be ready to make his Chelsea bow.
And the manager is excited by his impending arrival. “We bought Kenedy because we believe in him," Mourinho said.
