Empoli are in talks with Chelsea Nigerian midfielder Tino Anjorin over a permanent move to the Serie A club Empoli.
Chelsea are set for a busy end to the summer and whilst they are still looking to bring a striker in the main focus is on departures with the club facing a race against the clock to move players on before the end of the window.
According to The Athletic (via chelsea.news) the Blueshave reported that Anjorin is in talks with Serie A side Empoli over a permanent move to the club.
Empoli hope something will be agreed soon after starting negotiations earlier this week, although there’s also interest from other teams.
Anjorin, 22, joined Chelsea at under seven level and progressed through the ranks to the first team, making five appearances for the Blues.
He has spent time out on loan over the last few seasons at Lokomotiv Moscow, Portsmouth and Huddersfield but a series of injury issues have limited his game time.
The midfielder has just one year remaining on his deal at Chelsea and isn’t anywhere near the first team picture so leaving the club this summer is the best option.
