The agent of Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek has opened the door to a move to Lazio.

Former Blues manager Maurizio Sarri is keen to sign Loftus-Cheek for Lazio.

Earlier this week, agent Jonathan Barnett claimed: "Lazio have not spoken to Chelsea as far as I'm aware.

"But Maurizio Sarri is a fan of Ruben and he likes Serie A. Let's see what happens."

Loftus-Cheek is rumoured to have been identified as a possible replacement for Serbian star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, who is finally expected to quit Lazio.

The Italian giants were also keen on the ten-cap England star last summer after Sarri was appointed as manager.
