Chelsea are reportedly closing in on a move for Pep Chavarria as they look to bolster their left-back options, according to David Ornstein of The Athletic.
The report suggests the Blues see the young defender as a long-term addition to the squad, with the move understood to be gathering pace as part of Chelsea's ongoing squad planning.
While details remain scarce, the suggestion is that Chavarria could eventually provide competition or cover for Marc Cucurella in Enzo Maresca's defence, with Chelsea keen to add depth in that position.
As GoalPoles understands it, no fee or timeline has been confirmed, and the move should still be treated as a transfer target rather than a done deal until further details emerge from Stamford Bridge.
