Chelsea are among the clubs to have been offered the chance to sign Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez on loan.

Saul came through the youth academy at Atletico and will be allowed to leave this summer despite being part of Diego Simeone’s title-winning side last season.

He has played 19 times for Spain but was left out of their Euros squad this summer.

Manchester United have also been watching the midfielder, along with Eduardo Camavinga from Rennes.

Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel said on Sunday he was happy with his squad but could look to sign another midfielder after allowing Billy Gilmour to join Norwich City on loan last month.

Tuchel already has midfield options such as Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic and N’Golo Kante.

Chelsea are trying to find clubs for midfielders Tiemoue Bakayoko, who is close to joining AC Milan on loan, Ross Barkley and Danny Drinkwater.
