Chelsea are attempting to recall Andreas Christensen from his loan deal at Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Christensen, signed from Brondby as a 15-year-old in 2012, joined Gladbach on a two-year loan deal last summer without break clauses after signing a long-term contract at Stamford Bridge and has started 24 games there.

Christensen is still just 19 and scouts from Bayern Munich and clubs in Spain have been interested in the center-half.

Cutting short the loan would need agreement from all three parties but, whereas Gladbach might have considered an offer, Christensen is understood to be more inclined to remain in Germany in the knowledge he will benefit from regular football for a further season.
