Chelsea have asked for information about Saint-Ettiene midfielder Lucas Gourna-Douath, according to reports in France.
Not 18 until next week, Gourna-Douath has already made 30 appearances for Saint-Ettiene’s first team. Chelsea have been aware of his potential for a while, with reports linking them to him in March. It appears he remains on their radar as they look to plan for the future.
Chelsea have lost some of their younger talents this summer, such as Marc Guehi and Lewis Bate, due to the feeling that there may be better progression pathways elsewhere. However, they are still willing to invest in prospects for the future.
Gourna-Doauth is one of the players they are monitoring, with RMC Sport mentioning Chelsea as one of three clubs to have made enquiries. The others are Bundesliga duo Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen.
All three clubs have sought to see if Gourna-Douath would be available for transfer this summer. They seemingly want to get in on the action before his price rises too much.
