Chelsea Transfer Roundup: 2 New Links and Plenty of Other Updates

Antonio Conte’s Chelsea managed to get into the next round of the FA Cup with a convincing victory over Peterborough this week in the third round of the competition.

The manager will be happy, having won his first ever FA Cup game, and will now hope to keep up the good work in the league to keep his side at the top of the table.

The Blues have been linked with a number of star players for a move in January as manager Antonio Conte looks to bolster his options for the business end of the season.

Here are all such transfer rumours coming out of the Stamford Bridge today:

Llorente deal is closer to fruition:

The Spanish striker has been in decent form in his debut season and is monitored by Conte.

Diego Costa, the first choice striker for Chelsea this season, has no back-up and the Blues are now ready to land him this month on loan till the end of the season. It is understood that a deal is already in place but Swansea are waiting to find a replacement before letting him go. (Daily Star)

Midfielder loan deal blocked:

The Blues have one of the strongest squads in Europe with more than 30 players out on loan this season from the Stamford Bridge.

Reports suggest that they might send yet another player on loan as midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek is in the search of regular game time this season. Swansea, Watford and Middlesbrough are among teams that are interested in his signature. (Daily Mail)

Transfer target wants contract extension:

Conte has always been on the look out for stars who could add to the squad at the Bridge and he has been in the past linked with a move for Ivan Perisic of Inter Milan.

The 27-year old has had a decent time at the San Siro recently but Inter were reportedly ready to sell him in January. However, the player is now adamant that he wants to stay in Italy and has rejected offers from Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United and is now waiting for a new deal from the Italian side.

Chelsea wants German youngster:

The Chelsea boss is known for spending on superstars in the transfer maker but he is also equally adept at scouting for young talent in Europe.

The Blues are now interested in the signature of 17-year old Jann-Fiete Arp who is also wanted by Wolfsburg and RB Leipzig. He is currently on trial at Hamburg and is yet to be offered a professional contract and Chelsea wants to be first in line to offer him one when he turns 18 this year. (Evening Standard)

Batshuayi prefers London:

The Belgian international has not been able to make an impact at the Stamford Bridge this season, leaving Conte searching for yet another striker.

With Llorente inching closer, Batshuayi, may well be sent out on loan and Premier League outfits West Ham United and Swansea City are interested in his signature till the end of the season. But the young striker now prefers to stay in the capital and play for Slaven Bilic’s West Ham side over Paul Clement’s Welsh outfit. (Bleacher Report)
