Chelsea are reportedly eyeing the transfer of Lyon centre-back Samuel Umtiti.

Jose Mourinho is considering his future options, and sees the 21-year-old as the perfect partner for Kurt Zouma a few years down the line, according to reports.

Despite John Terry having one of his best ever seasons, the Blues boss understands that the 34-year-old will not be at Stamford Bridge forever.

Umtiti is being touted as a potential French international, who has already made 100 appearances in Ligue 1, and Mourinho could be tempted to take a punt on him in the summer.
