The Blues have been linked with a move for Roma’s Edin Dzeko.
Chelsea are reportedly in talks with Roma over a deal for both Emerson Palmieri and Edin Dzeko, according to the London Evening Standard.
It is believed the transfer would cost Chelsea somewhere in the region of £44million, with Belgian forward Michy Batshuayi going the other way.
