Chelsea are leading the race to sign highly rated goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma from AC Milan as they look for potential replacements for Thibaut Courtois.
Donnarumma remains one of the most promising youngsters in European football despite a disappointing season for the Rossoneri in Serie A.
Chelsea are preparing for the exit of current No 1 Courtois, whose contract is set to expire at the end of next season, with the goalkeeper's preference a move to Real Madrid.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Chelsea are leading the way to sign Donnarumma after having a bid rejected for Roma stopper Alisson.
Earlier this month it was reported that the Blues could be offered Donnarumma in exchange for striker Alvaro Morata.
Despite Donnarumma's agent Mino Raiola agitating for a move for his client, there have been no concrete offers to take the 19-year-old away from the San Siro.
And Milan could use Donnarumma as bait as they bid to add more firepower up front, by seeking a deal which would see Morata move the other way.
Morata has endured an inconsistent season at Stamford Bridge since arriving for a club-record fee of £70million from Real Madrid last summer.
The Spaniard has struggled with his finishing and managed just 11 Premier League goals, eventually losing his place to Chelsea's January signing Olivier Giroud.
But the 25-year-old's reputation in Italy remains high after two successful seasons spent with Juventus in Serie A between 2014 and 2016.

for if Chelsea really want him they have two choices: - (1) buy him for 70 million. (2) give us Morata in exchange players and some cash like (15-20m).
