Chelsea have made a £48m bid for Romeo Lavia and talks with Southampton could accelerate in the next 24 hours.

While the offer is expected to be rejected as Southampton hold out for their £50m valuation, it comes close enough that talks between the clubs could continue.

Liverpool have seen three bids for Lavia rejected so far this summer, the latest of which was worth around £45m.

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich have made Chelsea's Kepa Arrizabalaga their new No 1 goalkeeper target, according to Sky Germany.

The German champions are keen to sign a new 'keeper this summer after selling Yann Sommer to Inter Milan, while Manuel Neuer is recovering from a broken leg.
