Real Madrid have reportedly concluded plans to go after England youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi as they continue to strengthen their squad.
Despite signing the likes of Eden Hazard, Luka Jovic, and a few others, Zinedine Zidane's men are still struggling in all competitions.
They lost their dominance in world football after the exit of Cristiano Ronaldo as they have not found a quality replacement for the Portuguese forward.
Daily Star reports that Real president Florentino Perez and the manager Zidane have named four youngsters they want to sign and Hudson-Odoi is one of them.
The 19-year-old signed a new five year deal with the Blues to stop Bayern Munich from trying to sign him last summer.
However, it seems the Premier League outfit will have to deal with another superpower in football as Los Blancos have suddenly jumped on the chase for the attacker.
Hudson-Odoi who recently returned from a long injury layoff has made just six Premier League appearances for the Stamford Bridge outfit this campaign - creating three assists in the process.
Although Chelsea were unable to sign any player in the last transfer window, Hudson-Odoi will still have to compete with the likes of Christian Pulisic, Willian and Pedro for a starting berth.
Hudson-Odoi recently said that he was happy to have penned a new deal and snub Bayern Munich and praised Lampard for helping him.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are also said to be eying a move for the likes of Erling Braut Haaland of Red Bull Salzburg, Everton striker Moise Kean and Villarreal forward Samuel Chikwueze.
