Chelsea are "pushing hard" to sign Verona star Reda Belahyane. Chelsea could reinvest a similar sum in signing Belahyane as they receive from the sale of Cesare Casadei.

Chelsea have identified Reda Belahayne as a replacement for Cesare Casadei. Gianluca Di Marzio notes that the Blues are pushing to land the player this month. The issue for Belahayne is whether he wishes to become another Blues also-ran at Stamford Bridge or continue as a regular for Hellas Verona.

Reda Belahyane, a midfielder with a strong start to the season, has attracted interest from several top Italian clubs, especially Inter and Lazio. Chelsea has also shown strong interest in recent hours. Hellas Verona is asking for a fee of around 15 million euros for his transfer. The move from Chelsea might depend on the sale of Cesare Casadei, who is being contested by Lazio and Torino.

Chelsea are reportedly eyeing up the potential signing of Hellas Verona midfielder Reda Belahyane. The 20-year-old has caught the eye in Serie A and Chelsea has shown strong interest in signing him as a replacement for Cesare Casadei, according to Tuttomercatoweb. While he is highly rated, it is noted that if he joins Chelsea, he might initially go out on loan to develop further before making an impact at Stamford Bridge.
