Chelsea have reportedly agreed personal terms with Rennes centre back Jérémy Jacquet regarding a January switch but still have to settle on a fee which suits both clubs.
Shortly after Liam Rosenior’s appointment in west London, it emerged that the Blues had decided to go in search of a new centre back this month. Former boss Enzo Maresca had explicitly pointed to this problem position back in the summer following Levi Colwill’s ACL injury only to have his concerns bluntly rejected by Chelsea’s recruitment department.
