Chelsea are reportedly leading the race to sign Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior, who has struggled to establish himself at the Bernabeu.

Chelsea are reportedly one of a number of Premier League clubs who are interested in signing Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior.

While the youngster has a long-term contract at the Bernabeu, speculation persists regarding his future due to only being used on a rotational basis by Zinedine Zidane.

The 19-year-old has made six starts and eight substitute appearances in all competitions this season, leading to suggestions that the prospect could gain more first-team football elsewhere.

According to El Desmarque, Chelsea are one of several top English clubs who wish to secure a deal - permanent or temporary - for the Brazilian.

The report claims that Manchester United, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Wolverhampton Wanderers are also contemplating bids for the attacker.

As it stands, however, it appears unlikely that Real will agree to allow Vinicius to leave the club.
