Chelsea are reportedly preparing a €8m (£7.2m) offer for Malmo centre-back Anel Ahmedhodzic.
The 21-year-old left Malmo to join Nottingham Forest in 2016 but only made one first-team appearance for the Championship outfit before returning to the Swedish giants.
Following a loan spell with Danish club Hobro, Ahmedhodzic has become a key player for the Sky Blues and has now made 34 appearances for his current side in all competitions.
According to Expressen, Chelsea have been impressed by the defender's recent development and are lining up a €8m (£7.2m) bid in the hope of securing his signature.
Ahmedhodzic made his senior international debut for Sweden in January but has since switched his citizenship to Bosnia-Herzegovina and featured for the latter in the UEFA Nations League earlier this month.
Chelsea moved into fourth place in the Premier League table with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday afternoon.
