Latest Rumours: Chelsea Target Solid Defender
Chelsea are reportedly monitoring the situation of highly-rated defender, Alex Johnson, at Manchester United. Sources close to the club suggest that manager Frank Lampard is keen to bolster his defensive options before the January transfer window opens.
Johnson, 24, has been a consistent performer for the Red Devils this season, making 18 appearances and scoring 2 goals. His aggressive tackling and aerial ability would be a valuable asset to Lampard's team.
However, United are also keen to keep Johnson and are expected to make an offer to persuade him to stay. The asking price is rumoured to be in the region of £60 million.
