The agent of wantaway Bayern Munich defender Martin Demichelis has claimed that Chelsea are among the clubs showing an interest in his client.

The 29-year-old missed out on a place in Louis van Gaal's 18-man squad for the Bundesliga opener against Wolfsburg and was far from happy with that situation.

He told Bild: "The truth is that a cycle is coming to an end and it's better for both parties if we go our separate ways.

"I don't think it's fair to remain with the club if all signs point to a separation."

That sparked a raft of rumours linking him with a number of clubs in England, Spain and Italy, with agent Jorge Cyterszpiler a busy man.

He told calciomercato.it: "I have always had an excellent relationship with Juventus. We spoke with Juve, but they are not the only club interested.

"There are at least four clubs in for the player, as well as the Bianconeri there are also Barcelona, Chelsea and Sevilla.

"In Italy there is also Fiorentina, Napoli and Roma that have always liked him, but he is outside their budget.

"At the moment Bayern don't want to sell."
