Chelsea transfer news: Blues to hold talks with Euro giants over €20m star defender, yet to feature this season

Chelsea defender Baba Rahman has been linked with a move away from the London-based club in January.

Fenerbahce meanwhile are keen to bolster their squad following a disastrous league campaign.

A source from close to the club has revealed to Turkish-Football.com that the Yellow Canaries will hold talks with Chelsea for Rahman.

Per the source, Fenerbahce are hoping to sign the Ghana international on a season-long loan in January with an option to buy included within the deal.

The Ghana international joined Chelsea from Augsburg for a hefty €20 million.
