Cesare Casadei is favouring a move to Chelsea but that is not the only way that the clubs are intertwined, according to a report in the Italian media today.

As has been reported by Corriere dello Sport today, the young midfielder is much more interested in the proposed move to Chelsea than the likes of Sassuolo or Nice who have also shown interest.

He is a bearable sacrifice in the short term for Inter as he has no role that needs replacing in the first team setup.

There is a broader theme to the talks between Inter and Chelsea because the clubs will have to deal with each other in June or before to address the situation surrounding Romelu Lukaku and his loan.

That can also bring Denzel Dumfries into the mix because Chelsea are known to want the Dutchman but they are happy to wait until 2023 to sign him.
