Latest Chelsea transfer rumours - Inter and Atletico chase Marcos Alonso, Jeremie Boga return

It's been a great week for Chelsea as they qualified for the Champions League knockout stages by beating Lille.

After three defeats in their last four games, it was a welcome sight for Frank Lampard to see his side come away with victory.

Similarly, there was a welcome return for Antonio Rudiger, who came through the clash with the Ligue 1 side unscathed and could play a role against Bournemouth on Saturday.

With Chelsea's transfer ban lifted, the rumours have been flying about who the Blues could target in January.

With that in mind, we've gathered all the latest gossip and links below.

Frank Lampard responds to Zaha, Chilwell and Ake rumours

Alonso on the move?

Out-of-favour left-back Marcos Alonso could be on the move to Spain in the January transfer window.

The Spaniard doesn't appear to be a part of Frank Lampard's long-term plans, with Emerson and Cesar Azpilicueta both preferred in the left-back role.

With reports linking Chelsea with Ben Chilwell and other options too, Alonso could be on the way to Atletico Madrid.

Spanish radio station Cadena Cope report that the Spaniard could return to his native country in January.

Sticking with the Alonso stories, Sport Witness have another update on his future.

Antonio Conte is keen to bring Alonso to Inter Milan having signed him for Chelsea during his time at Stamford Bridge.

However, the latest reports claim Chelsea want over 30m euros to sanction a return to Italy for Alonso, despite him being out of favour.

Inter would only offer a paid loan of around €2-3m with a view to buy at around €20m in the summer, according to the latest development, which would be too low for Chelsea's liking.

Chelsea to re-sign Jeremie Boga?

In another classic example of Chelsea allowing a young player to leave, only for their value to double, Jeremie Boga could be on his way back to Stamford Bridge.

The 22-year-old completed a move to Sassuolo in 2018 for just £3.5m after loan spells all over the world.

Since moving to Italy, Boga has attracted interest from Barcelona after hitting 14 goals in 10 appearances for the Serie A side this term.

However, Chelsea are prepared to ruin any deal that Barcelona may pursue, as it has been revealed they have a buy back clause for a measly £3.5m, report The Daily Star.
