I think Chelsea is just using him as a leverage in negotiations for Sterling who is their primary target. Doubt they're really interested.
I think Chelsea wouldn't mind him in their squad for free on a low salary. But I very much doubt he's a priority for them. A good market opportunity to add depth to the squad, which is also why I think Dembele wouldn't want to go there as he's more or less nailed on starter here.
Contrary to reports, Chelsea are yet to make an offer to Dembele.

Damn, no way we're getting Raphinha with so much interest from EPL big-money teams.
We could probably drive the price down considering even these English reports are saying he is waiting for a response from us and holding out in hope we will make an offer.
Yea, dropping the price from 70 to 65 . Still going to be expensive.
