Inter Milan ask Chelsea for Emerson AND Marcos Alonso

Chelsea are making both senior left-backs Emerson Palmieri and Marcos Alonso available for the summer market.

Both Emerson and Marcos Alonso could be axed but it would have to involve a swap deal, says the Daily Star.

Inter Milan are interested in signing Emerson or Alonso after making a move in January.

But Chelsea would want a left-back in return, according to Sky Sports reporter Gianluca Di Marzio.

He said: "They have two very good left-backs - one who is very, very good and that is Emerson Palmieri and the other being Marco Alonso.

"It depends a lot on Emerson. In January, Inter asked for Alonso and Emerson.

"They asked for around £45m to sell one of the two players…they consider these players important to Chelsea.

"It depends on some possible swap deals, which could be done with Inter and Juventus.

"For example Emerson for Juventus' Alex Sandro.

"Chelsea can find another left-sided player, but through a swap deal. Otherwise, Chelsea will keep Emerson and Alonso."
