Rumor: Anderlecht eyeing Chelsea's Matt Miazga

Het Nieuwsblad reports Anderlecht is uncertain about hanging on to Senegalese defender Kara Mbodj, and has identified Chelsea's Matt Miazga as a potential replacement.

Mbodj has been unsettled at the Belgian club, and was thought likely to sign with Swansea - but the Premier League side has announced the acquisition of Alfie Mawson, so may no longer be in the market for a defender. It is reported that Anderlecht's targeted replacement for Mbodj - Jakub Brabec - has been snapped up by Genk. Still possibly in need of a replacement for want-away Mbodj, Anderlecht is rumored to have settled on Chelsea's young American.
