Atletico Madrid have reportedly put a £50m price tag on Spanish midfielder Koke in a bid to fend off interest from Chelsea.
The 23-year-old has been with Atletico since 2000 – emerging through the youth ranks at the Spanish club before breaking into the first team in 2009.
The midfielder is now widely regarded as one of the best talents in European football, with his performances over the last two seasons key to Atletico's success.
A recent report had claimed that Chelsea were preparing to offer Filipe Luis a return to Atletico as part of any transfer, but according to The Mirror, the Spanish champions will not entertain offers of less than £50m.
Koke, who is said to be a long-term target for Barcelona, has also gained 16 caps for his country.
