Chelsea and Manchester United keeping tabs on Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel

Chelsea and Manchester United are reportedly keeping tabs on Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel ahead of the summer transfer window.

Both Premier League heavyweights are in the market for a new shot-stopper, with Chelsea prepared to part ways with Kepa and Edouard Mendy, while Manchester United are involved in a contract standoff with David de Gea.

According to a report from The Independent, it is claimed that Dortmund are hoping to tie down Kobel to a new long-term deal amid talk of interest in his services from the Premier League gaining ground.

Kobel’s current contract with Dortmund is not due to expire until 2026 but the 25-year-old Switzerland international could be lured to making the move to the English top flight with big clubs keeping a close eye on developments.

Chelsea will be expected to overhaul their squad after a disappointing season and the new ownership at Stamford Bridge, who are closing in on the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino to the managerial role, will have a new goalkeeper on their priority list.
