Race heats up for **Chelsea**‘s £12.6M talent Cesare Casadei. Chelsea midfield player Cesare Casadei is one of the hottest prospects in this January transfer window, according to various reports from clubs in Europe. Casadei is valued at around £12.6 million currently. Chelsea consider him as one of the brightest talents. Casadei was garnering interest from clubs during his loan spell at Leicester City.
This term, the Italian U21 international has caused waves in the Championship much in the middle of the park combined with composure and great goal-scoring ability, too. Casadei has a tally of four goals with three assists in 18 appearances for Leicester, enough to show he possesses the quality to play at an elite level as a midfielder.
Casadei and SerieA connection
Sources claim Serie A teams **Juventus**and Lazio are keeping tabs as Leicester is keen to make it a permanent switch. Chelsea though are still not willing to see this young lad leave them permanently as they claim, Mauricio Pochettino prefers him.
The January window might get messy for Casadei, and Chelsea are now wondering whether to hold on to their long-term asset or cash in on the rising demand.
So far this season, Casadei has only featured for the Blues in cup competitions, with no Premier League appearance.
Heavily, interested clubs over this young man: This young man appears to Juventus cheap at the expense to upgrade on their midfield, AC Milan sees him an investment since time will have in regular games, Feyenoord have been the recent ones of putting interest into more developing his talent within Eredivisie. Looking forward with loaning move are those of Villarreal and Real Betis.
A January exit, or a loan is the most likely option for Casadei. The 21-year-old is unhappy with the lack of playing time at Chelsea. Thus he looks to get regular football for continued development.
