Chelsea have had their scouts watch a 20-year-old defender in the Ecuador National team as they search for a proper replacement for Thiago Silva.
The Blues are aware Silva won’t be around forever and they have already started looking for what they believe would be a closest replacement.
Despite the presence of several defenders in the Chelsea squad including Kalidou Koulibaly and Wesly Fofana who joined for £80m, Blues are out still searching for more defenders.
Piero Hincape who plays for German side, Bayer Leverkusen has managed to come up their list after his performances in the World Cup.
Blues will face competition from Tottenham Hotspur who also have the player on their list.
