Chelsea, who will lose Ben Chilwell for several months, is considering recruiting a left side in the winter transfer window and is thinking in particular of Lucas Digne, in the cold with Rafael Benitez at Everton.

More appeared under the jersey of Everton since December 1, Lucas Digne is a candidate for the start this winter and has been associated with several clubs in recent weeks, including Naples.
According to Goal and the Guardian, Lucas Digne could also be loaned to Chelsea, who will be deprived of his English left-back Ben Chilwell until the end of the season. Hit to a knee last month against Juventus, Chilwell hoped to be able to return to competition without undergoing surgery but will finally go through the operation box.
Emerson back to Chelsea?
To replace him, Chelsea are therefore considering the recruitment of a left-back and thinking of the 28-year-old French international. An interest also confirmed in Italy by Gianluca Di Marzio and Fabrizio Romano. The first confirms that Chelsea want a six-month loan while the second speaks of contacts already initiated between the London club and the player’s entourage.
If the Digne file were to fall apart, Chelsea could also resolve to repatriate one of their left-backs currently on loan. Emerson Palmieri (OL) and Ian Maatsen (Coventry) are concerned.
