Sevilla has set a price tag for their defender Joules Kounde amid interest from Chelsea.
Chelsea’s pursuit of Kounde continues during this summer transfer window and Sevilla will not let the 23-year-old go for less than €65 (£55.6m), Marca reports.
Chelsea have been interested in Kounde for over a year, making a bid for his services last summer which was unsuccessful.
The Blues are in serious need of reinforcements at centre-back and Kounde remains their number one target in the position, with the summer departures of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen.
Recall that Sevilla had put an €80m (£68.5m) price tag on Sevilla last year, which ultimately scuppered his move to the West London club.
The deal was so close that Kounde admitted the failed switch to Chelsea affected his performances at the start of last season.
