Chelsea set to sell youngster
Chelsea look set to sell Nathan Ake this summer, with Bournemouth leading the chase for the 22-year-old.
'Sky Sports' reports that the 'cherries' are confident of sealing a permanent deal to bring Ake back to the South coast, where he spent a loan spell last season.
Other sides such as Leicester and Southampton are also believed to have expressed an interest in the Dutchman, who made his international debut in March, but at the moment it is understood that Bournemouth are in pole position.
The fee that Chelsea are demanding is believed to be in the region of £20million and will bring in some useful funds for Chelsea boss Antonio Conte as he eyes a £240million spending spree this summer.
The defender enjoyed a successful loan spell at the club last season and Bournemouth attempted to sign him permanently in January but were knocked back, this time though it seems like they may get their man.
Ake would be the second player to swap Stamford Bridge for Dean Court this summer, following in the footsteps of Asmir Begovic.
