Chelsea are leading the pack of clubs hoping to sign winger Patrick Dorgu from Serie A side Lecce.
Dorgu, who can also play as a wing-back or conventional left-back, began his career in his native Denmark, before making the switch to Italy two years ago.
He then broke into the Lecce first-team and has since gone to make 47 appearances in all competitions for the club. Having played for Denmark at every age level from under-18 upwards, he was handed his senior debut in the Nations League in September, and has now been capped four times by them.
Crytal Palace, Tottenham, Napoli and Juventus are among the clubs who are tracking his progress, but Chelsea are reported to be ahead of them in the race for his signature.
He will not come cheap, though. He has a long-term contract with Lecce, and they are likely to demand ₤50 million of any club who wants to buy him in January.
