Aston Villa striker Jhon Duran is very much on the radar of Chelsea this summer.

The Colombian is valued at a mega £40 million, as Villa want to comply with Financial Fair Play. The Daily Mail states that Villa are also ready to sell Douglas Luiz to Juventus in exchange for £17 million.

They will also be getting two Juve players in the deal in Weston McKennie and Samuel Iling-Junior.

Red Bull Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko was Chelsea's first-choice target for the striker position.

Now that he is staying at his club for another season, they are moving on to Duran.
