Report: Chelsea tracking Dutch youngster Steven Bergwijn

Report: Chelsea tracking Dutch youngster

Chelsea are weighing up a potential summer bid for PSV Eindhoven midfielder Steven Bergwijn, according to a report.

The Blues are said to have been tracking the Dutch youngster and could pounce before he signs a new deal at his current club.

Respected Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, who has previously suggested that Chelsea were also after highly-rated Bologna youngster Amadou Diawara, claims that incoming boss Antonio Conte is still undecided at this stage.

Left-sided winger Bergwijn made five senior appearances for Eredivisie title winners PSV last season, and has also been capped seven times by the Netherlands at Under-19s level.

Chelsea are also thought to be in the market for a striker, with Liverpool's Christian Benteke the latest player to be linked with a switch to West London.
