Having not delivered a defensive acquisition to Antonio Conte this summer, the board have reach that time in the transfer window where they start to look at alternatives in a hope to regain their European status next season.
The new name on Chelsea’s transfer wishlist is 21-year-old, AC Milan defender: Alessio Romagnoli. According to DiMarzio and Football Italia, Chelsea submitted a €35 million (£30.2 million) bid for the young centre-back but the Rossoneri were quick to reject the offer as they consider Romagnoli ‘unsellable’.
