Livorno president Aldo Spinelli has confirmed Chelsea's interest in midfielder Antonio Candreva.
Candreva is on-loan at Livorno from Udinese and is interesting Chelsea and West Ham United.
Spinelli said: "I do not know if he will stay in Udine next season because many Italian and foreign clubs are watching him, not least Chelsea. He deserves all this attention because apart from being a good player, he is also a nice guy with a good head on his shoulders.
"He has the ability of a (Francesco) Totti."
