Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Marco Verratti after the Italian midfielder shunned a move to Saudi Arabia.
According to Footmercato, the Blues are mulling over a move for Verratti after missing out on Brighton's Moises Caicedo to Liverpool. Moreover, the midfielder is no longer inclined towards the Middle East and is looking to stay in Europe.

The Argentine manager is trying to forge a new-shape midfield at Stamford with Enzo Fernandez as the centre-piece of the project.
