Chelsea are believed to have sent sporting director Michael Emenalo to track the progress of Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke.
The Spain international has been in top form for the Basque outfit in recent season, and this has attracted interest from top clubs in Europe.
According to Spanish source AS, the Blues had sent Emenalo to watch Koke in action against Malaga last weekend.
The report adds that manager Jose Mourinho is keen on having the midfielder onboard for the next season, but would require a substantial amount to land his signature, given his current release clause of €60m.
Chelsea are currently top of the Premier League with 76 points.
