Chelsea 'eyeing Napoli full-back Elseid Hysaj'

Chelsea are reportedly lining up a summer move for Napoli full-back Elseid Hysaj.

The Albania international is yet to respond to the offer of a new contract from his current club and the Blues are hoping to hijack the negotiations, according to Italian outlet TMW.

The London club have made Hysaj one of their top summer targets, but Napoli are said to be unwilling to listen to offers below £40m.

Hysaj, who joined Napoli from Empoli in 2015, has earned 37 international caps for Albania.

Chelsea are said to be keen to boost their defence during the summer transfer window, and have also been linked with Paris Saint-Germain full-back Layvin Kurzawa.
