One Chelsea star is in demand right now with not too long to go before the transfer window closes.

Ahead of next Monday’s deadline, the likes of Axel Disasi, Joao Felix, Christopher Nkunku and Carney Chukwuemeka continue to be linked with moves away from Chelsea.

Disasi and Felix could both get transfers amid interest from Aston Villa. Villa are in talks with Chelsea to sign Felix, while Disasi has already agreed personal terms.

Neither have been regular starters under Enzo Maresca this season, and the same applies to Nkunku and Chukwuemeka.

Juventus and Porto the latest clubs to register an interest in Carney Chukwuemeka

Chukwuemeka has not featured in the Premier League at all since Maresca’s arrival at Stamford Bridge, so he will be looking to leave Chelsea before the window closes.

In terms of potential destinations, Juventus and Porto are the latest clubs to identify the midfielder as a target after Everton, West Ham United, Borussia Dortmund and Strasbourg, the Daily Mail reports.

However, despite his lack of game time this season, Chelsea are not making it easy for Chukwuemeka to depart.

According to the English newspaper, the Blues keep pointing to the player’s £40m release clause, which they want triggered.

Ipswich Town have enquired about Chukwuemeka as well, but the 21-year-old is thought to be against the idea of moving to Portman Road.

Carney Chukwuemeka and Ben Chilwell could leave Chelsea on loan

With Chukwuemeka on the fringes at Chelsea, the Blues are going to find it extremely difficult to sell the England youth international for £40m. It means a loan before the deadline is more likely.

Another Chelsea outcast who may not get a permanent move this month or at the start of February is Ben Chilwell.

The same Daily Mail report states that the defender is eyeing a late loan switch, with West Ham, Everton and Crystal Palace all said to be watching him. Just like Chukwuemeka, Chilwell has not played in the Premier League this season either.
