Chelsea eyeing Lyon midfielder Rayan Cherki

Chelsea are eyeing Lyon midfielder Rayan Cherki.

The young prospect could be on the move this summer with Lyon willing to sell for the right price.

Cherki is coveted by Europe's biggest clubs and famously turned down Manchester United as a junior player after visiting their Carrington complex.

Chelsea reporter Simon Phillips is stating the Blues are considering a swoop for the attacker.

Former Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is a fan and made an attempt to bring Cherki to Spain while talks with United were being held.
