They are in dire need of reinforcements in their defense and the 20-year-old would be a solid long-term signing. He has proven to be one of the best young defenders in Ligue 1 and has the quality to excel in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_Chelsea_go_ahead_with_a_deal_for_Jaquet_today\"><\/span>Will Chelsea go ahead with a deal for Jaquet today?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-2 (&amp;+p):mt-4 (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):inline-block (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):pb-2\">Chelsea and Rennes will play on Saturday night, and Sky Sports reporters have revealed that there could be a development after each game.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>He wrote:<span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\">Jeremy Jacquet only wants to sign for Chelsea.

He will be a long-term acquisition for them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jeremy_Jaquet_could_be_a_great_signing\"><\/span>Jeremy Jaquet could be a great signing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jeremy Jacquet playing for Rennes (Instagram)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"my-2 (&amp;+p):mt-4 (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):inline-block (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):pb-2\">If the Blues want to do well in the second half of the season, they need to tighten up at the back. They will be desperate to qualify for the Champions League next campaign. They have had multiple injury problems at the back, with players like Axel Disasi and Beno\u00eet Badiashile falling out of favor. Chelsea need to replace them and signing a young French player would be ideal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 (&amp;+p):mt-4 (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):inline-block (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):pb-2\">The defender has been linked with moves from clubs such as Liverpool, but it appears he has decided to move to London. The development will be a blow to the Premier League champions and will no doubt prompt Chelsea to finalize the process soon.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rennes defender Jeremy Jacquet has been linked with a move this month, with Chelsea keen to sign him.
