Matheus Franca of Flamengo is a player that Chelsea is considering signing for their new manager, Mauricio Pochettino.
The Brazilian sensation will likely be acquired by Chelsea for £25 million, according to the Daily Mail.
The 19-year-old midfielder was formerly a target for Newcastle, but now West Ham United and Crystal Palace are the two teams rumored to be monitoring the situation.
Flamengo was aware of the interest during the January transfer window, but they steadfastly refused to sell him.

Franca started his career in the Flamengo academy before arriving on the scene in the first-team squad in 2021.
