Chelsea will reportedly hold discussions with the agent of Bayern Munich defender David Alaba when the January transfer window opens for business.
Alaba has still not signed a new deal at the Allianz Arena, and as it stands, the Austria international will be out of contract next June.
A number of clubs, including Liverpool, Real Madrid and Juventus, have been credited with an interest in the versatile defender, who remains a vital figure for the European champions.
However, according to Bild journalist Christian Falk, Alaba's agent Pini Zahavi will hold talks with Chelsea in January over the possibility of a switch to Stamford Bridge.
Falk, though, claims that Paris Saint-Germain are also firmly in the hunt for the 28-year-old, who will seemingly have the pick of a number of top European sides if he decides to seek pastures new.
The Austrian has made 398 appearances for Bayern in all competitions, winning nine Bundesliga titles and two Champions League crowns during his time at the Allianz Arena.
