Chelsea have been keeping a close watch on Atalanta full-back Andrea Conti, but the club are yet to make any concrete move for the player.

A product of the Atalanta academy, the 22-year-old defender has regularly impressed with his steady performances in Serie A and has caught the prying eyes of a few European big wigs.




According to Italian broadcaster Sportitalia, Chelsea have been regularly watching the player in action for Atalanta and are interested in signing him in the near future.

However, the Premier League leaders are yet to make any concrete move for the player and Napoli are also said to be interested in the player but are not expected to make a move any time soon.
 


It has been suggested a fee of around €15m could be the starting point of any negotiations if one of his suitors want to sign Conti from Atalanta in the near future.
