According to reports from The Guardian this afternoon, Chelsea are plotting an audacious swoop for TWO Southampton stars this summer.

The first is right-back Nathaniel Clyne, whose impressive performances in the Premier League this term have seen him claim the No.2 berth in England’s starting line-up, with four caps since his international debut in October.

The second is holding midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin, who looks likely to move on this summer after three strong top flight campaigns at St Mary’s, this season averaging 3.7 tackles per match – the second-most of any Premier League player.

According to The Guardian, Chelsea believe they can sign the duo for around £52million this summer to further enhance their squad, having sent scouts to watch them both in action against Everton at the weekend.

Whether the Saints would let both leave in the same transfer window, however, after the club’s infamous exodus of players and coaches last summer, remains to be seen.

    Let them go to saints with very high price. We should find good player at their position with lower price and salary (or even younger). Every player could move with very high price, but we should keep Ronald Koeman at any price.
