With Filipe Luís, the Brazil full-back, set to leave Stamford Bridge and return to Atlético Madrid for £16m after just one season in the Premier League, José Mourinho has moved quickly to replace him by following up earlier interest in Rahman.
The Italian champions Juventus have also indicated that they are ready to make a bid along with Roma, although Rahman is understood to prefer a move to the Premier League.
Augsburg are holding out for a fee of €25m (£17.5m), although they are likely to accept slightly less for a player who joined them from Greuther Fürth only last summer.
Manchester City and Arsenal also registered an interest in signing Rahman at the end of last season but that appears to have cooled.
