Chelsea have joined Manchester United in the race to sign Lyon star Moussa Dembele.

The Daily Mail says Dembele is a target for United and was watched by a scout from the Old Trafford side on Saturday night as he scored at Toulouse.

But the Blues are exploring a move for the former Celtic striker next summer.

United view Dembele as a good option for the January window as they look to improve their forward options.

Yet it is understood Lyon might want to hold onto Dembele until the summer to maximise his value.
