Chelsea to bid for Galatasaray's Alex Telles?

Chelsea bid for Alex Telles?

Chelsea are planning a bid for Galatasaray left-back Alex Telles, according to reports.

The Blues are looking to find a replacement for Filipe Luis, who rejoined Atletico Madrid earlier today, and have reportedly turned their attention to the 22-year-old.

It is believed that Chelsea have been frustrated in their pursuit of Augsburg's Abdul Baba Rahman, with the Germans wanting a fee of £15m while reports suggest that both Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain are interested in the Ghana international.

According to The Mirror, the Brazilian will cost around £8m.

Telles has made 57 appearances in two seasons since his move from Gremio, helping his side win back-to-back Turkish Super Lig titles.
