Chelsea are reportedly eyeing a short-term loan move for Ben Chilwell amid interest from Turkey.

The 27-year-old England international has been deemed surplus to requirements by Blues manager Enzo Maresca.

He has been training away from the main group and reports claim that he could depart on loan.

Chilwell has no plans to accept a pay-cut at the current point of time. A temporary exit could depend on the Blues paying the majority of his wages.

Galatasaray and Fenerbahce are among clubs interested in him. It is left to be seen whether a deal materialises in the next few days.

The Turkish transfer window is scheduled to close on September 13. The Blues will be hoping to find an agreement in the near future.

It has been reported that Chilwell could prefer a short-term deal until January before pursuing a new challenge with another club.

The Leicester City graduate reportedly prefers to continue in the Premier League during the back end of his playing career.
