Chelsea have also been tipped to move for Borussia Dortmund’s Jadon Sancho, with Manchester United also eyeing the England international.
However, German football expert Kevin Hatchard has warned the Blues they could end up paying around £120m for the winger.
He told talkSPORT: “Even though he enjoys playing alongside Marco Reus, and Erling Braut Haaland has gone there and they’ve struck up a relationship already – they seem to get on pretty well on and off the pitch – I do think he’ll move.
“The finances for Dortmund make sense; we’ve seen them do that with Ousmane Dembele, they will sell players on if they get the right price for them.

“The Premier League is a possibility and I think Chelsea would be interested and he’s got a soft spot for them.
“Personally I think if somebody bid in the region of €140m, I think that’s a fair price.
“If you look at what players go for now, and at the fact Dortmund agreed a new contract with him and that several clubs will go for him, I don’t think €140m is unreasonable.”
