Chelsea may reportedly renew their interest in Borussia Monchengladbach defender Matthias Ginter during the January transfer window.

Ginter was one of several defensive-minded players to be linked with a move to Stamford Bridge earlier in 2020 before the Blues eventually signed Thiago Silva.

However, despite keeping three successive clean sheets, Frank Lampard is still keen to make further additions at the back.

According to Kicker, Chelsea could be prepared to make a fresh bid for Ginter, who has impressed during the early weeks of the 2020-21 campaign.

The 26-year-old featured in the Monchengladbach sides which claimed 2-2 draws against Inter Milan and Real Madrid earlier this month.

Ginter has also established himself as a regular in the Germany side, a development which has further enhanced his reputation.

Chelsea are reportedly preparing a €8m (£7.2m) offer for Malmo centre-back Anel Ahmedhodzic.

The 21-year-old left Malmo to join Nottingham Forest in 2016 but only made one first-team appearance for the Championship outfit before returning to the Swedish giants.

Following a loan spell with Danish club Hobro, Ahmedhodzic has become a key player for the Sky Blues and has now made 34 appearances for his current side in all competitions.

According to Expressen, Chelsea have been impressed by the defender’s recent development and are lining up a €8m (£7.2m) bid in the hope of securing his signature.

Ahmedhodzic made his senior international debut for Sweden in January but has since switched his citizenship to Bosnia-Herzegovina and featured for the latter in the UEFA Nations League earlier this month.

Chelsea moved into fourth place in the Premier League table with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday afternoon.
