Chelsea have reportedly drawn up a seven-man shortlist for the ongoing January transfer window. This is according to a report from Simon Phillips, who says that the Blues have listed down a number of central defenders as targets (via CaughtOffSide).

Among the seven players are Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi, who has been rumored to leave the Eagles in recent weeks. The England international is only contracted with his club till the summer of 2026, which may prompt Crystal Palace to sell him in 2025.

Another Premier League target for the west Londoners is Bournemouth's Dean Huijsen, who has made 15 appearances in the English top-flight this year. He's only 19 years old and is a wonderful long-term prospect.
