Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana is a target for Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur ahead of the summer transfer window, according to a report.

Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keeping tabs on Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana.

The 24-year-old has impressed for the Dutch outfit over the past two seasons, keeping eight clean sheets in 24 Eredivisie matches during the 2019-20 campaign.

The goalkeeping spot at Stamford Bridge has been up in the air this season as current number one Kepa Arrizabalaga has struggled for consistency, leading to suggestions that manager Frank Lampard could look for a fresh face between the sticks.

According to The Mirror, Onana is likely to leave Ajax in the near future, with Chelsea and Spurs viewing the Cameroon international as an ideal long-term replacement for Kepa and Hugo Lloris respectively.

However, the report also claims that Onana would prefer a move to Paris Saint-Germain, and Barcelona are said to be interested amid uncertainty regarding Marc-Andre ter Stegen's future.

Onana, who is under contract at Ajax until 2022, has refused to rule out a return to Barcelona, where he spent five years in the youth academy between 2010 and 2015.
