Chelsea and Manchester United are reportedly weighing up a move for Rayan ahead of the next transfer window.

The 19-year-old was linked with the Blues and Red Devils towards the end of last year, and neither made a serious move for him in January.

The Cherries eventually signed him for £25 million upfront due to his potential, and it has proved worthwhile for the South Coast outfit.

He has notched up five goals and two assists from just 14 league appearances and has earned a spot in Brazil’s squad in the World Cup as a result.

Bournemouth have also qualified for European football next season, but that does not necessarily mean that they will keep hold of their prized assets.

The Cherries are known as a selling club for the right price, and reports claim that Chelsea and United could compete for the highly-rated wide player.

Bournemouth are unlikely to let him go on the cheap and plan to demand a staggering £70 million at least for Rayan, who is primarily a right winger. He can play up top or on the left wing too.
