Chelsea ‘probe’ regarding availability of Elye Wahi

Chelsea and West Ham are both interested in a move for RC Lens winger Elye Wahi - according to a recent report from French outlet L’Equipe, the Blues have put forth a new enquiry into a possible transfer for the 21-year-old.

They have not put forth an official offer for Wahi’s services yet - nor have West Ham. Instead, the report suggests Chelsea will wait to see how much Lens want for the player before they commit to putting a transfer together. Last season, he scored nine goals and notched up three assists over the course of 27 Ligue 1 games.
