“The most important position Chelsea should be strengthening is in central defence,” Poyet told Lord Ping.
“De Ligt is an interesting player because when he left his previous club he went somewhere that he needed to improve tactically and dramatically to perform at that level.
“If he wants to move and Chelsea can afford him then he could be an interesting player for them. If Chelsea start pre-season without that top level centre-back, I will be worried.”
