Nathan Ake, a Manchester City defender, reportedly agreed to individual terms with Chelsea.
After agreeing to personal terms with Chelsea, NATHAN AKE is allegedly considering a move back to Stamford Bridge.
SunSport reported on Friday morning how the Blues and Manchester City were having cutting-edge discussions for the Dutch defense.
After seeing Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen depart on free agents, Thomas Tuchel is eager to bolster his backline.
The West Londoners are rumored to be interested in hiring Juventus' well-protected strong Matthijs de Ligt's services.
The 22-year-old is expected to experience some anxiety for Bayern Munich, though, as the Bundesliga team hopes to complete a quick trade.
Chelsea has therefore intensified its search for De Ligt's native countryman.
Ake, a Chelsea academy graduate who was traded to Bournemouth in 2017, was only occasionally used by Pep Guardiola last year.
He only started a few times in the Premier League, with Ruben Dias and Aymeric Laporte being the preferred pairing for the Spaniard.
Additionally, City will depart from Ake in different directions while still asking for up to £45 million.
Fabrizio Romano, the move master, claims that the Citizens are currently ready for an offer before rushing to find a replacement for Ake.
According to private circumstances, he tweeted, "Chelsea have full concord with Nathan Ake." Man City is aware of the situation on the player's side, but is still holding out for the authority to be granted.
City needs to spend between £40 and £45 million on Ake, and if that happens, they aim to replace him with another middle back.
Raheem Sterling, Ake's City colleague, might join him in West London.
According to reports, Ake, the England international, has agreed to specific terms with Chelsea as he nears a £50 million move to the city.
