Chelsea have reportedly received interest in Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall from another Premier League club.
During his first season at Stamford Bridge, Dewsbury-Hall made 19 starts and 17 substitute appearances in all competitions, helping the Blues win the Conference League and Club World Cup.
However, just two starts were made in the Premier League, a further 11 outings coming from the bench, and similar or less is expected during 2025-26.
With Dario Essugo and Andrey Santos adding to the central-midfield options and Chelsea acquiring more players for the number 10 role, it could essentially leave the Englishman out in the cold.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, a new Premier League team have entered the race for the 26-year-old.

Fulham receive Dewsbury-Hall competition
Fulham have already been credited with an interest in Dewsbury-Hall and are seemingly prepared to negotiate a permanent or loan deal with their West London neighbours.
Nevertheless, Romano suggests that Everton have become a serious contender to sign Dewsbury-Hall with negotiations now underway.
The Toffees are said to have made an official bid to sign Dewsbury-Hall on a permanent basis and Chelsea are open to the sale.
Having signed him for a fee in the region of £30m, the world champions are likely to be demanding a similar fee to facilitate his exit.
As it stands, it is unclear what stance Dewsbury-Hall is taking, but it is plausible that other interest could emerge in due course.
Everton manager David Moyes on July 15, 2025
Would Dewsbury-Hall become first choice at Everton?
David Moyes has already publicly declared that he wants to sign at least another six players before the end of the summer transfer window.
He lined up with Tim Iroegbunam and Idrissa Gueye as his two central-midfielders against Manchester United on Sunday night, another option in James Garner being used out wide.
Carlos Alcaraz is another option, but Moyes is not blessed with players for Everton's engine room and will view it as a priority position to strengthen.
Dewsbury-Hall is viewed as an attack-minded midfielder, yet he has only contributed three goals and five assists from 72 Premier League appearances.
