CESC WARNING OVER AURELIEN
Chelsea and Arsenal legend Cesc Fabregas has issued a hands-off warning to the Blues for Monaco star Aurelien Tchouameni.
The Blues are said to have targeted the 21-year-old midfielder, who has enjoyed a breakout season in Ligue 1 this term.
And in a Q&A session with fans on Twitter, Premier League winner Fabregas, 34, talked up his team-mate’s potential.
However, when one cheeky fan asked: “Will Tchouameni be a good signing for Chelsea? What are his strengths?” Fabregas was quick to say he hoped he would play alongside Tchouameni for years to come.
Fabregas, replying with a winking emoji, wrote: “He has the potential to be the complete midfielder. Modern midfield player, but we need him still… sorry.”
Combative Tchouameni made 42 appearances for Monaco last season, scoring three goals.
