Chelsea linked with CSKA Moscow star Aleksandr Golovin

Chelsea are allegedly interested in signing CSKA Moscow midfielder Aleksandr Golovin.

According to Sky Sports News, Maurizio Sarri targeted the Russian international while he was in charge of Napoli and will attempt to bring him to Stamford Bridge if he takes over from Antonio Conte this summer.

CSKA are said to have received other offers for Golovin and have slapped a €25m (£22.1m) price tag on his head.

The report suggests that Juventus had a €20m (£17.7m) offer for the midfielder turned down and are yet to return with an improved bid.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are said to have agreed a compensation package with Napoli that will enable them to unveil Sarri as their new head coach.
