De Telegraaf says Michael Emenalo quit as sporting director at Stamford Bridge in November, citing family reasons for his sudden resignation before joining Ligue 1 outfit Monaco.
The Blues are ready to step up their interest in Brands as a possible replacement.
Brands has been in his position at PSV since 2010. He has a good relationship with Chelsea having taken several players on-loan from the Londoners over recent years.
