Chelsea have reportedly intensified their interest in Argentina international, Mateo Martinez, according to sources close to the club. Martinez, a dynamic midfielder known for his passing range and tireless work rate, has been a standout performer for River Plate this season. The Blues are keen to bolster their midfield options ahead of the upcoming transfer window and believe Martinez’s skillset would be a valuable addition to their squad.

Speculation suggests that Chelsea are willing to offer around £70 million to secure Martinez's signature. However, River Plate are reportedly demanding a higher fee due to the player's significant value.
