Chelsea switch focus to Chilwell after Alex Telles decides on PSG move

Porto fullback Alex Telles is set to reject Chelsea in favour of a move to Paris Saint-Germain.

The Brazilian fullback is much wanted property in the summer transfer window, and Porto want to sell as he is entering the last year of his deal.

And a report in Gauchazh from Brazil, which has close ties to Telles' old club Gremio, says the player is set to move to PSG.

He will join his international teammate Neymar and world stars Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani at the French capital club.

The deal for the 27-year-old will cost PSG roughly £21.8 million.

Chelsea were in for Telles, but he appears to prefer the move to France instead.

The Blues will now switch their focus on signing talented Leicester left-back Ben Chilwell.
