Pepe could be the ideal replacement for the Belgian, but Chelsea deal-makers will have to fend off interest from Arsenal, Man United and Bayern to sign him.Last month, Manchester United and Arsenal were told by Lille president Gerard Lopez they will have to pay 80million (68.7m)if they want to sign the forward in the summer.While German champions Bayern have also shown strong interest in the winger. Lille president Gerard Lopez confirmed Pepe will leave in the summer, saying: It is sure he will leave. He enters a price range that can no longer be paid.“There is a career choice to make, I think he will have the choice.
