Chelsea have reportedly identified Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish as a potential summer signing.

Since the turn of the year, Grealish has been heavily linked with a switch to Manchester United, who appear ready to launch a big-money approach for the playmaker.

However, according to Calciomercato, Chelsea are also contemplating whether to join the race for the 24-year-old.

Despite the Blues being well stocked for options in the final third, Willian and Pedro may leave Stamford Bridge on free transfers later in 2020.

Frank Lampard would also favour adding another Englishman to his squad having already shown faith in a number of academy graduates.

Grealish has contributed seven goals and six assists from 26 starts in the Premier League this season.
