Chelsea look to sell midfielder months after signing

Chelsea will look to continue their good run of form when they face London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday. 

Enzo Maresca’s side have impressed of late and currently sit second in the Premier League table, seven points behind leaders Liverpool.

The Italian will hope to see his side get the better of Spurs, who were beaten 1-0 by Bournemouth on the south coast last time out.

While Maresca and his team have a busy schedule of fixtures to content with, those in charge of the club’s recruitment will also have one eye on the upcoming January transfer window.

With that in mind, it appears that the West London club are willing to sell one of their midfielders.

As per Football Insider, Chelsea are prepared to sell Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall when the window reopens next month.

The 26-year-old only joined the Blues over the summer, but he has since struggled to play regularly.

The Englishman has seen his opportunities largely limited to substitute appearances in the Europa Conference League and Carabao Cup.

Dewsbury-Hall could leave Chelsea in January

In total the central midfielder has played 13 times this term, but he has only made five league appearances and is yet to start a match in the competition.

He scored his first and only goal for the club during a 4-2 win over Belgian side Gent in the Conference League group phase.

Dewsbury-Hall is contracted to Chelsea until the summer of 2029, but the report claims that the London side will listen to offers of the player during the mid-season window.

Last season, the midfielder played a key role for Leicester City as they won the Championship title under current Blues boss Maresca.

Scottish side Rangers are believed to be interested in the Englishman, who cost Chelsea a fee of around £30 million less than six months ago.
