Chelsea and Manchester United have joined Manchester City in the race to sign Nathan Ake during this summer's transfer window.
The Netherlands international has been a key figure for Bournemouth in the central defence in recent years, but he has been touted to pursue a fresh challenge.
A recent report claimed that the Cityzens had opened negotiations with the Cherries and they could sign the Dutchman for a fee of around £35m.
However, according to The Sun, Ake does not seem in a hurry to join the League Cup holders and he is awaiting offers from other sides.
Chelsea, who have a buy-back clause worth £40m, are said to be considering a possible approach while United are also weighing up a potential bid.
Blues boss Frank Lampard is keen on working with a back three next term and Ake could feature on the left side of the central defence.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, meanwhile, is eager to land a new centre-back as he is far from impressed with the performances of Victor Lindelof.
