Chelsea fullback Emerson faces being cut loose by Lyon

Chelsea fullback Emerson Palmeiri faces being released by Lyon at the end of the season.

Currently on-loan with OL, TMW says the fullback has been informed the French giants won't be pursuing a permanent deal.

Emerson is a first-choice for OL coach Peter Bosz, but Chelsea are asking too high a fee for his outright signing.

As such, the Italy defender will return to London this summer, though may not stay for long.

Juventus are ready to bring Emerson back to Italy for next season.
