Chelsea are willing to sell midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka in the January transfer window.
Chukwuemeka has been linked with interest from Premier League rivals Ipswich Town.
The 21-year-old has become surplus to requirements at Chelsea under manager Enzo Maresca.
He has failed to start a game for Maresca’s side since the beginning of the season.
Chukwuemeka has made just three appearances across all competitions for Chelsea.
However, according to TEAMtalk, the Premier League west London club are said to be interested in signing another central defender and ready to part ways with Chukwuemeka to fund a move for one.
Chelsea will have to reduce their reported £40m valuation on Chukwuemeka in a bid to fast-track his exit from Stamford Bridge.
