Chelsea are interested in signing Leicester City midfielder Danny Drinkwater this summer.
According to Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol, Drinkwater is one of a number of options Chelsea are considering.

Drinkwater played Champions League football for Leicester last season but was underwhelming in the league as the club finished in the bottom half of the Premier League table.
This was after Drinkwater was a crucial part of their unbelievable title success in the 2015/16 season.
Drinkwater played a pivotal role in central midfield as Leicester stormed their way to an unlikely Premier League title, with many seeing it as one of the greatest sporting achievements of the century.
However, the claim does say that Leicester are unwilling to sell the English midfielder.
Chelsea have already added one new central midfielder to their side this summer. Tiemoue Bakayoko has joined from AS Monaco.
Nemanja Matic signed for Manchester United on Monday, leaving a gap in the squad.
