Chelsea have reportedly joined Tottenham in the race to sign Leeds starlet Archie Gray this summer. The versatile England Under-21 midfielder has many admirers in the Premier League but will not be signed on the cheap.

Gray excelled in a fantastic breakthrough campaign at Leeds last season. He made 52 appearances across all competitions, including all three of the club’s Championship play-off matches.

The 18-year-old spent a large part of the campaign at right-back after earning the trust of head coach Daniel Farke. That is despite his more natural position being in central midfield. Top-flight teams are widely understood to admire the youngster’s versatility.

According to the Daily Telegraph, Chelsea have an interest in Gray. Premier League rivals Spurs have also been linked this summer, while Liverpool are known to have kept tabs on the player over the course of the season
