The Blues are looking to bolster their backline ahead of next season and the Dutchman’s versatility in different formations appeals to Thomas Tuchel. However, according to La Gazetta dello Sport, Chelsea have expressed an interest in the 26-year-old and could make a £21million bid. Meanwhile, Chelsea need another full-back with Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso heavily linked with moves to Barcelona.
