Chelsea keen on re-signing former graduate

Chelsea are reportedly keen on re-signing Newcastle United left-back Lewis Hall during the next transfer window, according to Caught Offside.

The Blues currently have Marc Cucurella and Jorrel Hato as their left-back options, but the latter has been inconsistent with his performances.

Hato is still expected to stay beyond the summer, but this has not stopped the speculation linking the Blues with a move for Hall later this year.

Caught Offside claim that the Blues are seriously interested in bringing Hall back to west London. They are likely to face competition from Arsenal.

Newcastle are likely to demand at least 55 million pounds to part ways with their prized asset. They may require funds to balance their books.

Aside from Hall, the likes of Tino Livramento, Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali have been linked with moves away from Tyneside.

Hall appears to be one of the likelier candidates to leave for the right price. The Englishman may want playing time guarantees to join.
