Chelsea 'interested in Sevilla's Vitolo'

A report claims that Chelsea are considering a summer move for Sevilla attacker Vitolo, who has a £35m release clause.

Chelsea are reportedly considering a summer move for Sevilla attacker Vitolo.

The 27-year-old, who has a £35m release clause in his current contract, has been strongly linked with a move to Atletico Madrid in recent weeks, with the latter said to be keen to tie up a deal despite their transfer ban.

However, according to Estadio Deportivo, Chelsea have also expressed an interest in signing the Spaniard, with Blues boss Antonio Conte attracted by Vitolo's ability to play in a number of forward positions.

The Spain international, who scored six goals and registered six assists in 30 La Liga appearances last term, joined Sevilla from Las Palmas in the summer of 2013, and has since made more than 170 appearances.

Vitolo has also found the back of the net on four occasions in 11 caps for La Roja.
