Manchester United's bid to lure an Argentine defender to the Premier League may be scuppered by a domestic rival.
The Red Devils are desperately searching for defensive reinforcements for next season.
Per T Y C Sports, Aaron Anselmino from Boca Juniors is one they have been admiring.
The 19-year-old has been linked to United and AC Milan for the better part of this year.
Now there is a suggestion from the source that Chelsea may come into the frame.
They may see Aaron Anselmino as a possible replacement for departing star Thiago Silva.
The 6ft 2 inch star only made his senior debut for the Buenos Aires giants 12 months ago, shortly after he signed his first professional contract.
They updated his terms to include a (£15.72m) release clause in January.
But Boca took it out when they renewed him through to 2028 this month after it became obvious the amount was not high enough to deter offers.
A bidding war between Prem clubs would suit Boca down to the ground and journalist Fafi Perez has claimed Chelsea are Anselmino’s latest suitors.
The reporter told DSports Radio listeners that United remain the most interested club in the uncapped teenager.
