Chelsea set to battle Man United in the race to sign €80m star

Premier League sides Chelsea and Manchester United have initiated exploratory discussions regarding a potential transfer for Como midfielder Martin Baturina. While both suitors have gathered details on the Croatia international's availability, a significant valuation gap currently exists, with the Italian club holding out for an eighty million euro fee while prospective buyers value the twenty-three-year-old closer to sixty million euros.

Tottenham, Aston Villa, Newcastle United, Bayern Munich, and RB Leipzig are also monitoring the situation, though Baturina is not currently forcing an exit from Cesc Fabregas's squad.
