Chelsea transfer news: Igor Tudor wants Blues superstar Cesc Fabregas from former teammate Conte

Galatasaray boss Igor Tudor has placed Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas at the top of his summer transfer shortlist.

The Turkish newspaper Hurriyet have stated that Tudor wants a marquee signing in midfield this summer. Per the source, the Croatian manager will contact his former teammate Antonio Conte to discuss the transfer.

The only way Galatasaray could afford Fabregas is if they sell Wesley Sneijder this summer.

Fabregas has fallen out of favour with Antonio Conte at Chelsea and makes the majority of his apperances off the bench.
