The Italian has found himself as an unused substitute in the Blues last three games, and summer signing of Ben Chilwell has made it difficult for him to get into the side.
Speaking to InsideFutbol, Emerson’s agent Fernando Garcia has revealed that there have been no offers made for his client although Inter Milan, Juventus and Napoli have all been suggested as potential destinations in the January transfer window.
He said:
“It’s difficult to say anything at the moment.
“There have been no official offers.
“I’ve not had any offers to find out [if Chelsea will sell].
“There have only been enquiries. I will not speak about the clubs [involved].”
If Emerson was to leave Chelsea this month it might not be a straight forward process according to Frank Lampard, who was speaking in his Morecombe pre-match press conference. (Chelsea FC)
“We’ll see what happens with the squad because we’re in a very tough time in terms of Covid and how the transfer market looks,”
“So anything that happens, player by player, would have to be right for the club, for the player, dependent on contracts, and then myself.”
Chelsea are in FA Cup action against League two side Morecambe today, this should be the perfect opportunity for Emerson to get some much needed playing time.
