Chelsea have been handed a boost in their pursuit of Edin Dzeko, with reports in Italy suggesting Roma will target Gerard Deulofeu to replace the striker.
Sport Mediaset report that the Giallorossi are keen to take the player on loan with a view to a summer deal.
Dzeko has been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge this month, but talks are being held up.
Chelsea have been in talks with the Italian side over a deal for both Dzeko and Emerson Palmieri, with the Brazilian-born defender expected to join in the coming days.
Roma signed Patrik Schick over the summer, who is likely to step up and lead the line in Serie A should Dzeko leave this month.
Deulofeu, who has fallen out of favour at Barcelona could also join the club to bolster their attacking options in the final third.
The Spanish winger has been told he is free to leave the club following the arrival of Philippe Coutinho.
