Borussia Dortmund open talks with Chelsea for Veiga

Borussia Dortmund have opened talks with Chelsea for Renato Veiga.

BBC Sport says talks are underway over a January deal for the Portugal international.

Veiga is open to a move away after being frustrated over a lack of consistent game time this season.

BVB hope to set up a loan-to-buy arrangement with Chelsea for the young defender. The Blues rejected an approach from Wolves earlier this month.

Veiga joined Chelsea in a £12m deal from FC Basel last summer.
