According to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport, Monza are the most advanced of the teams interested in signing Casadei this January.

Recent reports suggest that Juventus, Empoli and Genoa have also expressed an interest in signing the Italy youth international.

The former Inter academy graduate has not had much luck in terms of game time since the appointment of Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge. He has only been included in the matchday squad twice this season, most recently in September, and has not yet managed to make it onto the pitch in the Premier League this term.

Keen for more game time, Casadei has also given his consent to a move away from Chelsea in the upcoming window.

According to Tuesday’s reports, Mona are pushing to take Casadei on a straight loan deal until the end of the 2024-25 season, and are keen to have him in the side for the Serie A match against Cagliari on January 5.
