The Blues want to bring the talented young Argentine to Stamford Bridge, with Jose Mourinho seemingly looking to bring in a long-term replacement for veteran forward Didier Drogba, whose future beyond this season remains uncertain.
Dybala has shown himself to be one of the most exciting young prospects in Europe this season, lighting up Serie A with his goalscoring displays and attracting interest from other top clubs.
Arsenal had been among his main admirers, but Chelsea could now anger their rivals with a big-money bid in the next transfer window.
