Chelsea target Jules Kounde is understood to be keen on making the move to Stamford Bridge with contractual agreements already in place.
The Frenchman has been pursued by the Chelsea camp since the summer window with Tuchel unable in his attempts to land his signature after Sevilla upped the asking price to part ways with their defensive talent.
In the build up to the forthcoming January transfer window, there is talk gaining ground that west Londoners will be forced to revive their interest in the 23-year-old La Liga star owing to the recent run of poor showings at the back.
According to reports from ESPN, it is claimed that the Sevilla man Kounde is keen on a move to the English capital with the plans of a four or five-year-long deal already set in place.
Tuchel is set to go after his longstanding target with renewed energy with the Blues manager resigned to lose his star central defender Antonio Rudiger come next summer on a free transfer.
