Chelsea eyeing £35million raid of Sevilla’s Vitolo

Chelsea are eyeing up a move for £35million rated Sevilla forward Vitolo, according to the Daily Star.

Antonio Conte is keen to strengthen his Chelsea side this summer as they prepare for their return to the Champions League next season.

Chelsea are already closing in on a five-year deal for 22-year-old Monaco star Tiemoue Bakayoko.

Vitolo, whose full name is Victor Machin Perez, is said to be the next transfer target on the club’s list.

The highly rated winger, who has a £35million release clause in his contract, has won the Europa League three times during his time with Sevilla.

Atletico Madrid were also said to be chasing the 27-year-old, but their transfer ban which prevents them from registering any player before January 1st has derailed their plans.

Vitolo joined Sevilla from Las Palmas in 2013 and has scored 18 goals in 115 appearances for the La Liga side.
