Chelsea ponder surprise swoop for Fulham attacker Pereira

Chelsea are eyeing Fulham star Andreas Pereira as they look to replace Mason Mount, according to reports.

The Blues midfielder sees his contract expire at the end of next season and he is no closer to agreeing an extension.

Therefore, Chelsea are preparing for his exit and have highlighted Pereira as a potential replacement, reports ESPN.

They report that Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are also interested as he is seen as a cost-effective option.

Pereira was at Manchester United for 11 years before leaving.
