Chelsea join Manchester United in race for Milan Skriniar

Milan Skriniar is one of the most fancied centre-backs in Europe

Inter Milan's Slovakian centre-back, Milan Skriniar, has become one of the most sought-after defenders in Europe due to his impressive performances and abilities. Predominantly linked with Manchester United, who are desperately in the hunt for a quality centre-back, Skriniar now finds himself on Chelsea's radar, according to reports from The Sun.

The report claims that Chelsea and their manager, Maurizio Sarri, are also keen on hiring a young centre-back, as a long-term replacement for Gary Cahill, 32, or David Luiz, 31, and have reportedly identified Skriniar as a suitable target.

Meanwhile, reports from Italy claim that 23-year-old Skriniar is growing frustrated with Milan's refusal to offer him a new contract with the wages he desires. However, he is expected to cost around £70 million, which could prove to be a hindrance for both, Chelsea and Manchester United.
