Chelsea set price as Inter Milan, Napoli target Emerson

Chelsea are inviting offers for Emerson Palmieri.

The Blues are ready to sell Emerson Palmieri this summer, but only if their £17million valuation is met.

Calciomercato says they will not let the defender leave Stamford Bridge on the cheap despite his contract being due to expire in 2022.

Inter Milan and Napoli are said to be keen on bringing Emerson back to Italy at the end of the season.

Both clubs showed interest in the January transfer window, but a deal could not be agreed as Chelsea hold out for a hefty fee.

The versatile defender was signed by former boss Antonio Conte for £17.6m in January 2018, and the club want to recoup most of that figure despite his lack of playing time under Thomas Tuchel.
