Chelsea have completed the signing of young Dutch striker Jayden Braaf, according to recent reports from the Metro.

Both the Manchester clubs also made an approach to bring the 15-year-old PSV Eindhoven forward to England, but he and his family have an agreement in place with Antonio Conte's side instead.

Chelsea, known for nurturing young talent from around the world, have snapped Amsterdam-born Braaf, who can operate on either wing as well as in the number nine role.

Braaf, who has won six caps for the Dutch Under-15 side, will make a move to Chelsea in the summer and will sign a first professional contract once he turns 16 on August 31.

Chelsea locked in a four-way battle for Isco

Real Madrid v Getafe - La Liga
Isco is seriously considering leaving Real Madrid

According to the Express, Chelsea, Manchester City, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain are battling it out with each other to secure the services of Real Madrid playmaker Isco.

Valued at a whopping £88m, the midfielder has been struggling for consistency at Santiago Bernabeu as he has started just 18 La Liga games this season.

"In Madrid, I don't have the confidence a player needs," Isco said.

There have also been claims that Isco and Real boss Zinedine Zidane do not see eye-to-eye as the Spaniard thinks that the French manager does not have faith in his capabilities.

"Maybe I'm the problem in Madrid and don't know how to win Zidane's confidence", Isco said.

The 25-year-old has made 36 appearances for Real in all competitions this season, scoring six goals and providing five assists.

Marcos Alonso not thinking about Chelsea exit

Chelsea v AFC Bournemouth - Premier League
Marcos Alonso isn't going anywhere

Last week, there were reports in the Express that Barcelona star Lionel Messi is impressed by Chelsea ace Marcos Alonso and wants him at the Camp Nou.

However, according to the latest Sky Sports reports, the 27-year-old wing-back has committed himself to the Stamford Bridge club.

"I have not considered that possibility, I just try to give the best of me to my team", Alonso assured.

A product of Real Madrid's youth academy, Alonso has established himself as one of Europe's top left backs after a stellar 18 months under Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge.

The Spaniard was a vital cog in the Chelsea squad which won the Premier League title last season, impressing as a left-back in Antonio Conte’s 3-4-3 formation.

The 27-year-old, who was signed in a surprise £24 million deal from Fiorentina in the summer of 2016, has so far gone on a streak of scoring the highest number of goals scored by a defender this season (7) and has scored 13 since last summer.
