Report: Chelsea to sign Morgan Schneiderlin

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is weighing up a summer move for Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin, according to reports.

Mourinho sent scouts to watch the France international in Saturday’s defeat at Everton and the Portuguese is now deciding whether or not to rival Arsenal for his signature, according to The Telegraph.

It is believed that the 25-year-old is the Blues’ third-choice option in the event that the Portuguese fails to lure one of Paul Pogba or Koke to Stamford Bridge.

Juventus ace Pogba, who is rated at around £74 million, is one of Europe’s hottest properties and Chelsea would face stiff competition, while Atletico Madrid’s Koke is thought to have told friends that he is keen to stay in Spain.

Is Schneiderlin – whose contract expires in 2017 – the man to sign? Let us know below.
