Chelsea are reportedly monitoring Roma defender Kostas Manolas amid speculation his proposed move to Zenit St. Petersburg has stalled over his wage demands.
According to the Telegraph's Matt Law, he was supposed to complete a £26 million move to Russia on Wednesday, but a disagreement over wages has caught Chelsea's attention as they get ready to offload Nathan Ake to Bournemouth for £20 million.
The Blues have not yet made a direct enquiry about Manolas, but they could pounce if his move to Zenit breaks down.
