Chelsea’s interest in Ben Chilwell won’t make Leicester City ‘lose sleep worrying’ says Brendan Rodgers

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers insists he is not worried by any potential interest in his Leicester players this summer, with Chelsea targeting left back Ben Chilwell.

As reported by Standard Sport, the England international is now Chelsea’s top target after completed deals for Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner.

The Foxes lost Harry Maguire to Manchester United last summer, and Rodgers says he’s relaxed as transfer talk continues around Chillwell.

"The club have got good experience of situations where bigger the so-called bigger clubs come in," Rodgers said, as per Sky Sports. "We're always aware that while there are good players, that will always be of interest to other teams that have more money than us.

"We don't lose sleep worrying about it. We're here to develop players and improve the standard of the team. Of course, if we're doing that then that will be taken note of by other clubs."
