Chelsea are reportedly considering a move for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti in the January transfer window.
The 24-year-old's future at Parc des Princes has been up in the air since his agent Donati Di Campli revealed that his client will consider all options.
Verratti is believed to be upset with criticism from the French media, and could contemplate a move elsewhere if PSG do not pick up any silverware this season.
According to The Mirror, Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is keeping an eye on Verratti, and if a transfer is agreed, it could pave the way for John Obi Mikel to leave when his contract expires at the end of the season.
Verratti, who penned a new fine-year deal in August, has won four Ligue 1 titles, two French Cups and two French League Cups since signing for PSG from Pescara in 2012.
