Sassuolo open talks with Chelsea over left-back loan deal

Serie A side Sassuolo are in talks with Chelsea to sign left-back Kenedy on loan for the season.

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard appears willing to let Kenedy leave Stamford Bridge with Marcos Alonso and Emerson his preferred options on the left flank.

Sassuolo require reinforcements after fellow Brazilian left-back Rogerio picked up an injury, reports Sky Italia.

It’s not clear how long Rogerio will be out of action so Sassuolo may look to take Kenedy on loan before the transfer deadline on September 2.

Chelsea have done business with Sassuolo before, who took winger Jeremie Boga initially on loan before activating their £2.7million purchase option.

23-year-old Kenedy has just returned from a loan spell at Newcastle, with whom he made 28 Premier League appearances, contributing on goal and one assist.

Newcastle were reportedly interest in the permanent signing of Kennedy but were put off by Chelsea’s inflated £30million asking price.

He was purchased by Chelsea from Fluminense for £7.2million in 2015, and has made just 14 Premier League appearances for the Blues.
