Lazio have made a move to sign Chelsea defender Davide Zappacosta.
It would be a loan until the summer with a permanent £13m switch to follow with the Italian club hopeful of getting a deal done.
The right-back has been restricted to just two Premier League outings this term, although he has been a regular in the Europa League.
But Chelsea ’s squad shake-up - with Cesc Fabregas set for Monaco - could be in danger of leaving themselves short.
Gary Cahill is also hoping to leave Stamford Bridge in the search for more regular football.
Fulham are keen on a loan deal for England defender Cahill with the 33-year-old reluctant to leave Chelsea but wants to play games.

Agree totally! Jorginho is slow and not creative. He is over-cautious and prefers safe passes. I miss Cesc’s beautiful passes and his peripheral vision. I am not happy with the current direction Chelsea is going. Hope I am wrong.
