English Premier League champions CHELSEA are weighing up a £20m swoop for Ghana international Baba Rahman because boss Jose Mourinho is not satisfied with his left-back options going into next season.
Chelsea signed Filipe Luis last summer for £15.8m from Atletico Madrid to fill the position, but the move has not worked out well for the Brazilian.
He has had to play second fiddle to Spaniard Cesar Azpilicueta which has resulted in the decision to consider the talented Ghanaian youngster.
Blues boss Jose Mourinho is understood to have contacted Black Stars coach and former Chelsea boss Avram Grant about the 20-year-old left back, who has impressed with Augsburg in the German top flight this season.
The champions are believed to be ready to make a bid for Rahman.
