Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is a target for Chelsea, and the Blues may try to convince Leicester to trade by enticing the Foxes with some of their own players in exchange.

Chelsea have entered the race to sign Leicester ace Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall as they attempt to hijack Brighton’s pursuit of the midfielder. The 25-year-old appeared to be on his way to the AMEX Stadium, with reports suggesting that Seagulls midfielder Jakub Moder would be heading in the opposite direction.

Leicester will need firepower if they are to enjoy a successful season on their return to the Premier League. And Chelsea could put forward Armando Broja, who has fallen out of favour at Stamford Bridge.

Broja was tipped to star at the top of the game after enjoying a successful loan spell with Southampton three seasons ago. But he has failed to kick on after suffering a serious ACL injury at the end of 2022.

The 22-year-old could struggle to force his way into the Chelsea team next season and may jump at the chance to prove his worth in the Premier League once again in the east Midlands.
