Transfer rumours: Chelsea interested in Leandro Trossard
It has been reported that Chelsea have opened preliminary talks with Leandro Trossard.
Those stories have suggested that Chelsea made the Brighton attacker a top target ahead of his Brighton contract expiring next summer.
Brighton are allegedly not willing to sell the Belgian international in January but they could face losing him on a free transfer next summer. He was in outstanding form before the World Cup break, with his 14 Premier League matches seeing him score seven goals and made three assists.
He has earned 22 Belgium caps and scored five goals for his country and made his first World Cup appearance off the bench against Canada.
Reaction from the internet
One Chelsea fan said on Twitter: "Not sure about him, he’s not creative and not a dribbler, so exactly the opposite of what we need right now, maybe if the price is decent it’s okay. If we spend more than 20 million and think he can improve us then we are going nowhere with this board."

Lewis, a Chelsea fan who lives in Manchester, said: "I think this would be a great signing actually."
