Chelsea will have to battle Manchester City, Manchester United for Porto defender this summer

The Blues purportedly face conceivable competitions for Porto left-back Alex Telles this summer as both Manchester City and Manchester United have also been connected with an enthusiasm for him.

The talented left-back had an amazing season this previous season as he enrolled 13 goals and 12 assists in 47 appearances to go with his defensive characteristics.

Given what Marcos Alonso has offered Chelsea, Frank Lampard will apparently need to get a replacement who can offer the equivalent attacking threat for his side down the left flank, however significantly somebody who can also offer an all the more balanced and defensively stable choice simultaneously.

Alex Telles could be a brilliant signing to address that issue, but report that both Manchester City and Manchester United could also be keen on defensive pro, who is supposed to be rated at around £22.7m.

It’s prominent that he could be seen a less expensive option in contrast to Leicester City left-back Ben Chilwell as they may need to pay around £80m to sign him, thus looking somewhere else may ostensibly be the brilliant move.

However, the truth will surface eventually if they can remain ahead of the competition for Alex Telles if he becomes important for that position, with both City and United apparently now in the picture as well.

All things considered, given Luke Shaw and Brandon Williams offer Ole Gunnar Solskjaer key alternatives at left-back recently, it doesn’t appear the most brilliant thought for Manchester United to make a move.

Interestingly, with Benjamin Mendy failing to entirely persuade and maybe an upgrade required on Oleksandr Zinchenko, Manchester City could apparently rise as the most grounded competition for Chelsea if Alex Telles becomes their top choice to reinforce Pep Guardiola’s squad in that division.
