Olympique Lyon face competition for Chelsea fullback Emerson Palmieri.

The Italy defender is on a straight loan at OL, where he was blocked from returning to Chelsea in January.

Emerson insists he's happy at OL and is open to extending his stay into next season.

However, Italian transfer expert Nicolo Schira is reporting Lazio are also interested in the left-back.

Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri worked with Emerson at Chelsea and is keen on a reunion - just as he is with Blues teammate Kepa Arrizabalaga.
