Chelsea scouts have been to watch Grimsby Town striker Liam Hearn in action, according to The People.
The 26-year-old has been in good goalscoring form in the Conference this season, having found the net on 19 occasions.
Scouts from the Blues are believed to have attended Grimsby's match with Alfreton last weekend and saw Hearn score twice.
Championship outfit Reading were also in attendance at the same game to watch the former Eastwood Town centre-forward.
