Chelsea have reportedly outlined their intentions to move for Manchester City defender Nathan Ake this summer.
The 27-year-old has been with the Citizens for the past two years, but the centre-back has largely struggled for regular playtime under Pep Guardiola.
It is understood that, the Blues are prepared to assure him with a regular spot next term as their defensive rebuild continues.
The Premier League champions are eyeing at least £50m for the Netherlands international while they would also need to find a replacement first.
This is likely to delay the negotiations for the versatile defender, but the west Londoners are pretty optimistic that they can re-sign the Dutchman.
Ake still has three years left to run on his contract at the Etihad.
