Chelsea want to replace Casadei with 20 year old star

Chelsea are interested to replace Cesare Casadei in this window itself. They are planning to sign 20 year old star who is having a decent season in Italy.

The Blues are on the verge of parting ways with Cesare Casadei. The 21 year old is expected to make a return to Italy. Lazio are currently leading the race with Torino also showing interest.

Along with Casadei, the Blues may also have to part ways with Chukwuemeka and Dewsbury-Hall. This will require further reinforcements in the middle of the park. As of now, Enzo Fernandez and Lavia are also out injured which can make the midfield signing an urgent matter.

Chelsea view Hellas Verona star as replacement for Casadei

Gianluca Di Marzio has reported that the Blues are showing interest in Hellas Verona star Reda Belahyane. The 20 year old has been very good for the Italian club this season. He has so far played 20 games in Serie A.

Belahyane represents Morocco on international level and has already made his debut. He is capable of playing as both holding and central midfielder. As per Di Marzio, the 20 year old can cost Chelsea around €15 million.

Belahyane can be a long-term investement for Chelsea. He can evolve in a world-class player under right guidance. Convincing the player will not be too hard for the Blues as playing in Premier League will be huge step up in his career.

Chelsea are expected to atleast make one midfield signing this month. They have also been showing interest in Douglas Luiz. But, the Juventus star has more competition due to his experience. In addition, he can cost around £45 million. On the other hand, Belahyane can cost lot less than him plus is 6 years younger than the Brazilian. It will be interesting to see how Blues approach the situation.
