Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Chelsea on Saturday, August 15.

The summer transfer window has now begun, with rumours and speculation continuing to swirl as Chelsea eye possible reinforcements.

The Blues failed to bring in a single player during the January window, despite seeing their transfer ban cut short by FIFA, but have already been busy this summer.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings from Stamford Bridge.

Saturday morning's Chelsea transfer talk news roundup:


Manchester United 'agree £10.8m deal for Filip Stevanovic'

Partizan teenager Filip Stevanovic is reportedly heading for Manchester United in a €12m (£10.8m) deal.

The 17-year-old enjoyed an impressive 2019-20 campaign for his Serbian club, scoring nine times and contributing three times in 35 appearances in all competitions.

Stevanovic played twice against United in the group stages of this season's Europa League and has previously been linked with Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea.

However, according to Republika, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have agreed a €12m (£10.8m) deal for the youngster, who could officially arrive in the summer of 2021.

The report claims that Stevanovic is likely to spend another 12 months on loan with Partizan before linking up with the Premier League side next summer.

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid have also previously been linked with a player who largely operated as a left-sided attacker during the 2019-20 season.

The Serbia Under-19 international has scored nine times and contributed four assists in 42 appearances for Savo Milosevic's side in all competitions.



Lucas Vazquez 'expected to leave Real Madrid this summer'

Real Madrid attacker Lucas Vazquez is reportedly likely to leave the Bernabeu this summer.

The 29-year-old ended the 2019-20 campaign with 23 appearances in all competitions despite missing stages of the season with toe and calf injuries.

Vazquez's future has recently been called into question, though, with Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea both thought to be interested in his services.

According to Marca, Los Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane is ready to sell the Spaniard during this summer's transfer window, while the futures of Luka Jovic, Mariano Diaz, Gareth Bale and Brahim Diaz are also believed to be uncertain.

Last month, it was reported that Tottenham were lining up a €16m (£14.5m) offer for Vazquez, whose current deal at the Bernabeu is due to expire next summer.

The versatile attacker has made over 200 appearances for Madrid in all competitions.
