Multiple reliable reports are claiming that Chelsea are keeping tabs on Wesley Franca, who plies his trade as a defender for Roma. The move is still in the early stages, but interest appears to be growing. Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester City are reportedly waiting in the wings. Finalising a fee and payment terms remains central to closing the transfer. With only 31 goals conceded in 27 (1.15 per game), Chelsea have been one of the stronger defences in the Premier League this season.. Wesley Franca would be asked to keep that standard and provide dependable cover when needed. Roma continue to be linked with Tommaso Baldanzi and Mason Greenwood while Chelsea are also rumoured to be tracking Marco Palestra, Brian Brobbey and Florian Wirtz.
