Chelsea are interested in signing Jordan Henderson from Brentford.
The 36-year-old has impressed with Bees and England since he returned to the UK from Ajax in 2025.
Brentford have been clear with Henderson since they signed him that they would not stand in his way if big clubs came in.
This means he could be allowed to leave on a free transfer, however that is not certain to be the case if multiple clubs come in.
Henderson has a year left on his Brentford deal.
Chelsea manager, Xabi Alonso, is keen to bring in players with character, leadership qualities and experience.
The Blues were keen on Granit Xhaka at Sunderland earlier this summer, but a deal did not materialise.
