'We'll see what happens in winter': RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol leaves the door open for a January switch to Chelsea despite signing five-year deal just this month... after the Blues had a bid for the £75m-rated 20-year-old rejected in summer

RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol has left the door open on a potential January switch to Chelsea, who reportedly bid for the Croatian's services in summer without any success.

The 20-year-old defender, who started all four of Croatia's games at Euro 2020, has drawn interest from the west London club, who are reported to have bid £78.5million (€90m) for his services.

Gvardiol has drawn interest from a number of Europe's top sides, with the versatile defender capable both at centre-back and left-back, and as such Leipzig sought to tie him down until 2027.
