Chelsea back in the hunt for Feyenoord youngster De Guzman

Chelsea are on the trail of Feyenoord starlet Jonathan de Guzman. With just one year remaining on his contract, the Eredivisie leaders are resigned to losing the 21-year-old, who is valued at around £4million. Able to play as a right winger or as an attacking midfielder, De Guzman has battled back impressively from a serious knee injury picked up just after the turn of the year. Chelsea first considered a move for De Guzman two years ago and have monitored his progress ever since. Their sporting director, Frank Arnesen, was in Holland at the weekend to witness the youngster score a stunning double in Feyenoord's 4-0 home win over Roda JC. However, Chelsea will face competition from Valencia and Stuttgart for his signature. Although Canadian born, De Guzman has a Dutch passport and has already represented his adopted country at Under 21 level. He is understood to be in the reckoning for a place in Bert van Marwijk's squad for the World Cup next summer.
