Chelsea join Jeison Murillo chase

Chelsea have joined the likes of Arsenal and Leicester City in the hunt for Inter Milan centre-back Jeison Murillo. The Colombian appeared in 35 games in an impressive debut season for the Nerazzurri.

Inter are currently considering the sale of some of their top players as they look to stay within the Financial Fair Play regulations.

According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, Murillo could be the first to leave the San Siro outfit amid strong interest from top English clubs.

Antonio Conte's Chelsea will be looking to beat their rivals for the player after it emerged that Juventus would not permit the sale of priority target Leonardo Bonucci.

Murillo is currently valued in the region of £18m.
