Chelsea turn down £20million offer from Premier League club for defender

Chelsea have turned down a £20million offer from Crystal Palace for full-back Reece James, according to reports. The Eagles are looking for a replacement for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who left the club to join Manchester United in a £50million deal in June. According to Daily Star report that the Selhurst Park outfit are keen to sign another young Englishman in the shape of James. However, it’s claimed the Blues have knocked back the approach as they see the England Under-20 international as a big part of their future.
