Casadei gives approval to permanent move away from Chelsea – report

According to updates from Gianluca Di Marzio, Casadei has said yes to the opportunity of a return to his home country. There had been several clubs interested in making a move for the 21-year-old in the January transfer window, but Torino now appear to be in advanced negotiations with Chelsea.

Di Marzio reports that Chelsea are seeking a fee in the region of €20m for Casadei, and are also pushing for a buy-back clause in their favour.

Torino, meanwhile, have reportedly offered somewhere in the region of €12m with a significant sell-on clause.

While there is still a gap to be bridged in negotiations, talks are still ongoing and Casadei’s desire to return to Italy is understood to be an important factor.

BREAKING: Chelsea consider Trevoh Chalobah recall.

Chelsea are considering recalling Trevoh Chalobah from his loan at Crystal Palace as an option to deal with defensive injuries. There is a break clause in his deal.

‘I’m not out for the rest of the season, I don’t know why he [Maresca] said that. I will be back in 4-6 weeks.’

Chelsea are seriously considering to bring in one more centre back this month.

Understand Marc Guehi has been discussed as an option internally, not easy… but he has 18 months left on contract. Chelsea also have a recall clause for Trevoh Chalobah.

If Chelsea decide to attack for Marc Guehi, Chalobah could be a point of contact in terms of the discussion between clubs. Chelsea think Guehi is one of the most interesting options.

Chelsea may do more incoming business other than centre back. Remember what I told you on Nkunku, in case he or his agent says let me go, could be one to watch.
