Monaco teenager Malamine Efekele - dubbed the 'new Kylian Mbappe' - emerges as a target for Chelsea, according to a report.

Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Monaco teenager Malamine Efekele, who has been branded 'the new Kylian Mbappe' by sections of the French media.

The 15-year-old, who is capable of operating in a number of different positions in the final third of the field, has impressed with his performances at youth level for his principality club.

According to L'Equipe, Chelsea are currently tracking the teenager as they consider making an attempt to bring him to Stamford Bridge ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

The report claims that Efekele is regarded as the best talent to come through Monaco's youth system since Mbappe, who has developed into one of the best attackers in world football.

Chelsea have already secured deals for Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner this summer, while Frank Lampard's side are also said to be interested in signing Bayer Leverkusen's Kai Havertz.

The Blues will be looking to solidify their top-four spot in the Premier League table when they travel to Sheffield United on Saturday.
