Chelsea are among the European clubs interested in signing Florian Neuhaus

According to 90min (h/t Football.London), Chelsea are among the host of European and English clubs interested in signing Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Florian Neuhaus.

Apart from Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle United and Arsenal are the Premier League clubs monitoring the situation of a player who enters the final of his contract with the German club this summer.

AC Milan, AS Roma and Napoli represent the European clubs interested in the 26-year-old. He missed some action due to a knee injury, but Monchengladbach have slowly restored into the team.

Neuhaus, the former Fortuna Dusseldorf player, is a versatile midfielder who can operate either as a central midfielder, in a double midfield pivot or as a number 10.

Although the German international has only got two goals in 18 appearances for Monchengladbach this season, his numbers for them overall have been very good for a midfielder.

The 26-year-old has 22 goals and 24 assists in 166 appearances. With regard to his attributes, he likes to make late runs in the opposition box, covers the distance from box to box to help the team in both facets of the game is a fantastic passer and dribbler of the ball and can hit them well towards the goal.

With N’Golo Kante’s contract expiring in the summer and no agreement reached yet, Chelsea might look to add a midfielder this summer. Conor Gallagher might be offloaded in the summer with Liverpool interested, while Mateo Kovacic is being eyed by Manchester City. We have already sold Jorginho in January.
