Jesse Derry could be moving further away from Sporting. The 19-year-old English winger is in talks to renew his contract with Chelsea at a time when he is also attracting interest from across Europe: Bayern Munich and Juventus.

According to Football Insider, via the Chelsea News website, the Blues have already started talks with the player’s representatives to extend his deal. In addition to Sporting, who have been monitoring the forward’s progress for several months, the German champions and the Turin club are also keeping a close eye on the situation.

Jesse Derry joined Chelsea last summer from Crystal Palace and quickly stood out in the under-21 and youth teams. Last season he scored 12 goals in 33 matches and also made his debut for the first team, confirming his status as one of the biggest prospects in the London club’s academy.

Chelsea’s intention is to tie down the winger as soon as possible, preventing interested clubs from taking advantage of a market opportunity. The young Englishman’s performances have not gone unnoticed, and the competition is expected to make any attempt to sign him more difficult.

Despite the renewal talks, Jesse Derry’s future remains open. Sporting continue to rate the winger highly for the future, but know they will have to face competition from some of Europe’s biggest clubs if they decide to move for the player.
