Chelsea have offered three first-team players to Leicester City in a proposed deal to sign Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, according to reports.
The Blues have identified Dewsbury-Hall as a key target this summer, with new manager Enzo Maresca keen to reunite with a player he managed at Leicester.
Dewsbury-Hall has made over 100 league appearances for Leicester and helped the Foxes win the Championship last season and secure a return to the Premier League.
The 25-year-old midfielder is said to be open to leaving his boyhood club and favours a move to Chelsea over Brighton, who have also expressed interest in securing his signature.
Chelsea reportedly submitted a bid to Leicester on Friday and have indicated they are willing to send one of several players the other way if it means bringing Dewsbury-Hall to Stamford Bridge.
The Daily Telegraph say striker Armando Broja, forward David Datro Fofana and midfielder Cesare Casadei – who spent last season on loan at Leicester – have all been raised by Chelsea as possible makeshifts in the deal.
Leicester value Dewsbury-Hall at around £35m and are under pressure to sell in order to meet profit and sustainability rules.
