Marc Cucurella\u2019s long-range strike earned Chelsea a narrow 1-0 win over struggling Leicester City on Sunday afternoon.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Enzo Maresca\u2019s side were given the opportunity to go ahead from the penalty spot in the first half, but Cole Palmer failed to convert for the first time in his senior career.<\/p>\n

The hosts continued to dominate but couldn\u2019t break the deadlock until Cucurella\u2019s long range strike found the bottom corner.<\/p>\n

The win moves Maresca\u2019s side back into the top four and puts them on course to qualify for the Champions League next term.<\/p>\n

Now, it appears that the West London outfit have been scouting a Serie A sensation.<\/p>\n

As reported by TBR Football<\/a>, Chelsea are one of a number of Premier League clubs to have scouted Inter Milan\u2019s Marcus Thuram recently.<\/p>\n

The report claims that the Blues \u2013 as well as Liverpool and Arsenal \u2013 had scouts in attendance to watch the Frenchman score against Feyenoord in the Champions League last week.<\/p>\n

Thuram has been watched by Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal in recent weeks<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Thuram, 27, joined Inter in 2023 after leaving German side Borussia Monchengladbach and has since scored 30 goals in 82 matches across all competitions.<\/p>\n

This season he has scored 15 goals, including 13 in Serie A and two in the Champions League.<\/p>\n

The France international is contracted to Inter until the end of the 2027\/28 campaign, but the report claims that the trio of English sides are weighing up a potential move for the forward when the transfer window reopens this summer.<\/p>\n

At present there is a \u00a370 million release clause in the player\u2019s contract, but the report claims that Inter are hoping to negotiate a new deal that could see the clause either increased or removed entirely.<\/p>\n

Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea are all on the hunt for attacking reinforcements and could be set to battle it out for Thuram\u2019s signature this summer.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
