Chelsea Quoted £60m For Top Defensive Target

Newly crowned Europa League winners Chelsea will have to part with a sizeable amount of money if they want to sign Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka this summer.

The Blues are one of the numerous clubs on the trail of the Eagles defender.

According to Sky Sports, Crystal Palace have told interested clubs that only a transfer fee of at least £60m will be enough to secure the signing of the young right-back.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka has enjoyed a meteoric rise in a short space of time after breaking into the Crystal Palace starting XI at the expense of Joel Ward.

The 21-year-old became the first choice right-back at Crystal Palace at the start of the just concluded Premier League campaign.

Apart from Chelsea, other Premier League sides like Manchester United, Arsenal and Manchester City have also been linked with a move for the England international player.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka is being targeted at Chelsea as a long-term replacement for Cesar Azpilicueta who has been a wonderful servant for the West London giants since joining from French giants Marseille.

Of all the interested teams, Manchester United have pushed hard for a move for Wan-Bissaka after the Red Devils were rejected upon making a bid of around £40m for him.
