Chelsea Interested in Signing Brighton Midfielder Ayari

Chelsea are interested in signing Brighton midfielder Yasin Ayari.

According to TEAMtalk, as reported by Operativ Media, Galatasaray, Fenerbahce, and AC Milan are also interested in the Sweden international. However, Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott remains the London club's primary transfer target.

The 23-year-old player's contract with Brighton runs until the summer of 2027. Although the parties have been negotiating a new long-term deal for several months, they have yet to reach an agreement.

Yasin Ayari joined Brighton from Swedish club AIK in 2023. He has made 12 appearances in all competitions in the 2026/2027 season, scoring two goals.

The Transfermarkt portal estimates the midfielder's market value at €45 million.
