Report: Chelsea target Fulham's Marcus Bettinelli

Fulham's Marcus Bettinelli is being lined up as a replacement for Petr Cech at Chelsea, according to reports.

Chelsea are considering an approach for Fulham's England Under-21 international goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli, according to reports.

The 22-year-old has become a regular in the Cottagers' side this season, and made his international debut in the Under-21s 1-0 victory over the Czech Republic in March.

His form has caught the attention of Blues boss Jose Mourinho, who wants to make the young goalkeeper the understudy to Thibaut Courtois at Stamford Bridge, reports The Telegraph.

Bettinelli, whose contract at Craven Cottage expires next year, is the son of Chelsea's academy goalkeeping coach Vic Bettinelli, while Mourinho's son, Jose Mario, is a young goalkeeper on the books at Fulham.
