Chelsea have identified Sevilla's Monchi as another possible candidate for the sporting director role.

  • The west London giants have been actively pursuing a sporting director this summer, but they have been unsuccessful thus far.

    An approach for Michael Edwards was unsuccessful, and it was followed by a failed attempt to lure RB Salzburg's Christoph Freund.

    Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain's football advisor Luis Campos has already distanced himself from the lucrative job at Chelsea.

    Amidst this, 90min report that Blues co-owner Todd Boehly has an interest in Monchi, who is currently Sevilla's football director.

    The 54-year-old has spent just two years away from Sevilla since 2000, and the Blues are bound to face a difficult task of luring him.

    Aside from Monchi, the club have their sights on Bayer Leverkusen's Tim Steidten, who was promoted as sporting director this summer.

    Steidten has a big reputation for scouting quality young talents, and Boehly is said to be keen on building a young squad for the long run.
