Chelsea insider: Blues enter race to sign Arsenal attacking target — talks with player’s camp held two days ago in potential blow to Gunners

Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Arsenal target Eberechi Eze this summer.
 

The 27-year-old has been heavily linked with a potential summer move to the Emirates in recent weeks, with talks between Arsenal and his representatives already taking place.

Now, the Gunners could face competition for the Englishman's signature.

Chelsea journalist Simon Phillips reports that the Blues are keen on a potential summer deal for Eze.

Enzo Maresca's side are understood to have held talks with Eze's representatives two days ago.

However, no club-to-club talks have taken place yet.

This update, if true, could be a major blow to Arsenal's pursuit of the Crystal Palace attacker this summer.
