Chelsea are reportedly interested in Brighton and Hove Albion defender Ben White, according to the latest reports

It is no secret that Mikel Arteta is keen to add another defender to the squad in the next few months, especially after David Luiz decided to leave the club, and it seems that Ben White is the number one target.

Regarded as one of the finest young defenders in the Premier League, White has been tipped to sign for one of the biggest clubs in the game, and it has been claimed that Arsenal will be paying £50 million to wrap up this transfer deal

However, as they take too long to wrap up a transfer deal for the talented young man, there has now been reports in the media that the club are now ready to swoop in and get a transfer deal done

Thomas Tuchel has one of the best left-backs in the Premier League in the shape of Ben Chilwell, but with rumours that Marcos Alonso could leave the club, there may be space that will need to get filled.

The Transfer podcast says that we could potentially make a move for the England international this summer.

‘We’ve told you there’s been interest and a conversation with Manchester City,’ journalist Duncan Castles said.

‘I now understand that Chelsea have notified the player of their interest in signing him.’

There is no doubt that White has the ability to play for a massive club like Arsenal or Chelsea, so it is very easy to see just why the clubs are so interested in getting a transfer deal done
