Danny Welbeck transfer news: Chelsea hold positives talks with Brighton over signing of striker

Chelsea have held positive initial talks with Brighton about a deal for Danny Welbeck.

With a year remaining on his contract, Brighton do not want to stand in the striker's way as long as they get a fair price for his sale.

Welbeck has continued to be a reliable goalscorer in the Premier League at 35 years old. Last season he scored 13 times, after scoring 10 in the previous campaign.

His potential arrival would be another example of Chelsea prioritising physically imposing players with Premier League experience this summer.
