​Sevilla beginning to assess replacements for Chelsea target Kounde

Sevilla are looking for alternative centre-halves should Jules Kounde leave in the summer.

The La Liga club are resigned to losing the Frenhc defender, who wanted to join Chelsea last summer and this winter.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Sevilla are scouting players in Italy and other parts of Europe to get a head start on signing a new defender in the summer.

Sevilla may also lose Brazilian centre-back Diego Carlos, who is still wanted by Newcastle United.

The departure of two key defenders would bring in a lot of cash, but would also signal the need to make key signings at the right prices.
