Arsenal and Chelsea could compete for the signature of Sporting Lisbon defender Ousmane Diomande this summer, according to A Bola.
The Ivory Coast international has established himself as one of the best young centre-backs and could be on the move in the next transfer window.
He has a release clause worth 80 million euros in his contract, but Sporting CP could be willing to sanction his sale for 60 million euros this summer.
Arsenal and Chelsea are reportedly keeping tabs on him and it remains to be seen whether either club land his signature in the next transfer window.
The Gunners have been long-term admirers of the 21-year-old from his time in Norway, but they don’t necessarily require another central defender.
The same can’t be said for the Blues, who are desperately searching for a new defensive partner for Levi Colwill ahead of the 2025/26 season.
Chelsea may have to secure Champions League football to lure him. Bayern Munich have also asked for information on the talented defender.
