José Mourinho is looking for reinforcements for his team, Fenerbahce, for the January transfer window. According to Fotomac, one of his targets is Ben Chilwell, a 27-year-old who is not finding the continuity he hoped for at Chelsea. The operation might conclude as a loan with an option to buy in January, but the decision will be made by the English club.

Fenerbahce were among the sides linked with Chilwell during the summer but the defender’s wages, combined with his struggles with injuries in recent times, meant a deal proved unconvincing to interested sides.

Chelsea has agreed to Fenerbahçe's offer to cover a portion of Ben Chilwell's salary for a loan transfer. Fenerbahçe's manager, Jose Mourinho, has already discussed the player's potential role and projects within the team. Chilwell has two options: to join Fenerbahçe on a one-season loan or to continue training separately at Chelsea until the January transfer window.

Chelsea are open to loaning Ben Chilwell to Turkey. It was reported that Chilwell had been offered to Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce, but the story has not developed further. There is 'virtually no chance' of a permanent transfer, so Chelsea are willing to sanction a temporary move.
