Chelsea have reportedly indicated that they are keen to push through with the loan signing of Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches.
After Sanches saw first-team opportunities limited at Bayern last season, the Bundesliga champions are willing to allow the Portuguese prospect to leave on a temporary basis.
There has been no shortage of interest in the 19-year-old, with AC Milan and Manchester United both said to be keen on signing Sanches before the end of the transfer window.
Bayern have also confirmed that Chelsea are admirers and according to Corriere dello Sport, head coach Antonio Conte has signalled that he is willing to meet their demands for the player.
The Premier League title holders are in the market for another midfielder, with Nemanja Matic close to completing a transfer to Manchester United.
The Blues have also been linked with Everton's Ross Barkley, but Sanches would appear to be a more like-for-like replacement for the outgoing Serbian international.
