Chelsea showing interest in Bayern Munich defender

Chelsea have purportedly step up their interest in Bayern Munich’s Niklas Sule as a part of their quest for another centre back.

The Premier league giants are supposed to be hoping to reinforce at the back this summer, notwithstanding a impressive defensive record since Thomas Tuchel took over in January.

As per The Athletic, the Niklas Sule is a priority target for Tuchel, who has long admired the Germany international.

Sule has spent the last four seasons at the Allianz Arena, however his future is doubt as he plans to enter the final year of his contract.

A similar report recommends that Chelsea are prepared to jump for the 25-year-old, accepting that Hansi Flick’s imminent departure from Bayern will entice the centre back to leave this summer.
