Chelsea's interest in Danny Drinkwater is real and serious according to Goal.com's Chelsea correspondent Nizaar Kinsella.
Manager Antonio Conte is desperately seeking a new midfielder after the departure of Nemanja Matic.
Leicester City will only sell if they receive an offer in the region of £35million.
"Chelsea's interest in Danny Drinkwater is real and serious," Kinsella wrote on Twitter.
"It will be hard to convince Leicester though.
"Remember: Chelsea have Cesc [Fabregas], [N'Golo] Kante and [Tiemoue] Bakayoko.
"The last arrival may end up as fourth choice in central midfield."
