Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is said to want to sign Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde for €80 million.

Pochettino, according to El Nacional, is eager to sign Valverde as he attempts to bolster his midfield this summer.

N’Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic appear to be departing Chelsea, leaving Pochettino short on personnel.

Chelsea would reportedly pay £70-80 million to get Real Madrid to sit down and negotiate a deal for Valverde.
