Chelsea set to hijack Arsenal and Aston Villa transfer moves for Real Madrid star Jese Rodriguez

Chelsea have joined the race to seal the transfer of Jese Rodriguez, according to reports in Spain.


The Blues have endured a poor start to the season and are likely to look to bolster their squad in January. And the Real Madrid man could fit the bill as he is unsettled in the Spanish capital.

Arsenal were believed to be the frontrunners to land the Spaniard but Chelsea are keen to hijack their bid, according to Fichajes.

Aston Villa, Napoli and Inter Milan are also all believed to be in the hunt for the attacker.
