Borussia Dortmund and Chelsea advance in talks over Chukwuemeka

Renato Veiga may not be the only Chelsea player heading to Borussia Dortmund this winter, as the clubs are negotiating another potential transfer.

Details: According to Fabrizio Romano, central midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka is close to joining Borussia Dortmund on loan.

However, the loan agreement is not expected to include a purchase option.

Signing a new central midfielder is a top priority for Borussia Dortmund this winter.

This season, Chukwuemeka has made only five appearances across all competitions.

If Dortmund and Chelsea fail to reach an agreement, the 21-year-old is expected to join Strasbourg on loan instead.

Reminder: Earlier, Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca admitted he finds it challenging to allocate playing time for João Félix.
