Chelsea must pay Croatian side Rijeka £8million for forward Andrej Kramaric.
Kramaric is attracting the interest of several of Europe’s top teams, with reports in Croatia suggesting there are as many as 15 clubs chasing him.
According to those reports, Kramaric’s father travelled to London this weekend for talks with the Premier League leaders. The player was also scouted by Chelsea during Rijeka’s recent fixture against Zadar.
Kramaric, 23, was given his senior Croatia debut this year and has figured in their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign. Yet Chelsea would be cautious about paying a relatively high price for a player who has yet to prove himself in Europe’s major leagues.
