Chelsea are interested in former Arsenal winger Serge Gnabry as the club consider potential alternatives to Raphinha and hold talks with AC Milan over a deal to offload Hakim Ziyech.
According to The Telegraph, Chelsea are interested in recruiting Gnabry after he entered the final 12 months of his Bayern contract.
The Blues are expected to focus on defensive reinforcements after Raheem Sterling completes his £50million move from Manchester City but plan to bring in another attacking name.
Tuchel had identified Raphinha as a priority target alongside Sterling, and Chelsea agreed a £55m deal with Leeds.
However, the Brazilian winger has snubbed a Stamford Bridge switch to hold out for a dream move to Barcelona, who have submitted an improved offer for his services.
The report states Chelsea are also willing to let Hakim Ziyech join Romelu Lukaku out the exit door this summer, with AC Milan hoping to shake hands on a season-long loan with the obligation to buy.
The Moroccan recently split from his long-term agent and wants to leave west London for Italy with the help of Roc Nation Sports, who played a part in Lukaku’s return to Inter Milan.
