Chelsea outcast Danny Drinkwater is in talks with Turkey's Kasimpasa.

The former Premier League title winner has been training and playing with Chelsea's U23s and has considered moves to the Bundesliga with tentative interest from Schalke and FC Koln.

He was sent off in a under-23s fixture against Tottenham last month when he kicked out at 16-year-old Alfie Devine.

Turkish side Kasimpasa, who are 14th in the Turkish Super Lig, are pushing to take him away from Stamford Bridge this month, says the Daily Mail.

Talks are at an early stage but could progress quickly with Chelsea keen to trim their wage bill and Drinkwater having 18 months left on his contract.
