Chelsea are eyeing a summer move for highly rated Lille center-back Leny Yoro as they consider options to replace Thiago Silva. The 18 years old has attracted interest from other top European clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid due to his impressive season in France.

Chelsea’s owners aim to sign young talents like Yoro to bolster the squad. PSG is also keen on retaining Yoro in Ligue 1. Besides Yoro, Chelsea is exploring alternatives like Sporting’s Ousmane Diomande and Nice’s Jean-Clair Todibo for the center-back position.

Additionally, Chelsea is targeting a striker and a left-back in what promises to be another ambitious summer transfer window.
