Chelsea have resumed talks with Bayern Munich for Mathys Tel after the forward declared he is ready to leave.
The 19-year-old has seven offers on the table, with other Premier League sides interested.
Manchester United could yet come into the equation before Monday while Tottenham, Aston Villa and Arsenal have discussed him in recent months.
The Frenchman had told Chelsea he wanted to stay in Germany following their enquiry early in the window but he has failed to figure in the last three games.
Tel joined Bayern aged 17 from French club Rennes for £25million in the summer of 2022 to much praise from then manager Julian Nagelsmann.
However, after featuring regularly in his first two campaign, Tel has struggled to nail down a place under Vincent Kompany, who prefers either Kingsley Coman, Leroy Sane, or Serge Gnabry onthe left flank.

It just so happens that Bayern hold an interest in Chelsea’s £70m-rated Christopher Nkunku
Meanwhile, Bayern hold an interest in Chelsea’s £70m-rated forward Christopher Nkunku, who Manchester United have made a shock loan enquiry over.
Mail Sport previously reported that Nkunku has agreed to go to Bayern if they meet Chelsea’s £70m asking price.
Nkunku, 27, has endured a frustrating 18 months since joining the Blues from RB Leipzig for £52m in the summer of 2023.
After spending much of last season injured, the Frenchman has started just three Premier League games this time around and has mainly featured in cup competitions for Enzo Maresca’s side.
