Juventus are reportedly leading Chelsea in the race to sign Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni.
The 21-year-old appeared in all three of France's matches during the international break, while he has already featured on eight occasions for Monaco at the start of the 2021-22 campaign.
Chelsea were strongly linked with the midfielder during the summer transfer window, and it is believed that the Blues could reignite their interest in 2022.
However, according to Tuttosport, Juventus are at the head of the queue for the Frenchman, who has three years left to run on his contract with his Ligue 1 outfit.
Tchouameni - also linked with Manchester United over the summer - has scored four times and registered four assists in 53 appearances for Monaco in all competitions.
Chelsea ultimately boosted their midfield over the summer with the signing of Saul Niguez, who has joined on an initial one-year loan from Atletico Madrid.
