Chelsea are threatening Manchester United’s plans for Villarreal defender Pau Torres.

Torres looks set to earn a big move this summer courtesy of his impressive development at Villarreal and he is now regarded as one of the best centre-backs in La Liga.

If Torres is to move to the Premier League, a switch to United appears to be his most likely destination.

However, according to The Athletic, Chelsea have actually been monitoring the 24-year-old's progress in recent months.

Thomas Tuchel is set to decide whether he wants to bring in another centre-back at the end of the campaign.

Should he wish to do so, Chelsea look set to try and hijack United's proposed move for Torres.

The ball-playing defender has a release clause in the region of £45million in his contract.

Villarreal are also allegedly open to potential player-plus-cash offers. (Tribal Football)
