However, he went on to play a central role in Chelsea's Champions League campaign, with his performances helping the Stamford Bridge dwellers lift the title.

Madrid, who are expected to spend big this summer are now said to be tracking Werner and are plotting a sensational summer move for the forward.

The La Liga giants' new manager, Ancelotti, is reportedly a big fan of Werner's versatility, and would gladly have him play on the wing.

Reports on Real's interest in the former Stuttgart star came only days after former Chelsea star Cesc Fabregas backed him to play an integral part in the Blues' team next season.

"I watch every single Chelsea game, so I've followed the first seasons of the club's two big German signings, Kai Havertz and Timo Werner, very closely and I am convinced next season we will start to really see the best of them," Fabregas wrote in his column for The Daily Telegraph.
