Lazio have expressed interest in Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi.
Lazio sporting director Igli Tare is in the market for a new wide player this summer, but has hit a roadblock over a push for Borussia Dortmund attacker Julian Brandt.
Gazzetta dello Sport says instead, Tare is now making a move for Hudson-Odoi.
Chelsea are keen to do business and have informed Tare a deal can be done.
The Blues are ready to send him to Rome on a simple loan, without the inclusion of a permanent option.
