Chelsea look set to abandon their plans of signing Ghana defender Baba Abdul Rahman as they weigh up a move for Galatasaray's Alex Telles.
The English champions are unwilling to top up an initial offer to make the £15m asking price of Augsburg to sign Rahman.
Chelsea are looking to sign a replacement for Felipe Luis who has departed to rejoin his former club Atletico Madrid.
But Augsburg's demands for the Ghana international appear exorbitant for the Blues - forcing them into looking at alternatives.
Contact has thus been made with Galatasaray to sign the Brazilian who holds an Italian passport instead.
Telles will reportedly cost Chelsea £8m which is seen as a good bargain instead of the £15m being demanded by Augsburg for Baba Rahman.
