<p>Per <a href="https://sport.sky.de/transfer/news/34132/13288204/bvb-nimmt-gespraeche-mit-fc-chelsea-auf-wegen-carney-chukwuemeka" target="_blank"><em>Sky Germany</em></a>, Dortmund have initiated direct talks with Chelsea in a bid to land their midfielder Chukwuemeka in the January transfer window. The Bundesliga side see the 21-year-old as the perfect candidate to play as a No.8 and are eyeing a loan move for the youngster.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The report adds that a loan move with an option to buy in the future will not be feasible for the German side, who only want to sign the English midfielder on a short-term deal. Internally, the Blues have set a valuation of the player in the region of €35 million (£29.5m/$36m) to €40million (£34m/$41m).</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Dortmund have also approached the west London side to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/renato-veiga-shock-chelsea-exit-six-months-arrival-borussia-dortmund-transfer-interest/blta7ab56e75bc52159#csfc6b34a916f2da23" target="_blank">secure the signature of Renato Veiga</a>, who moved to Stamford Bridge from FC Basel only six months back. Chelsea are willing to let the defender leave on a permanent transfer and will demand a fee in the region of £29m ($36m) with a sell-on clause.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Chelsea are expected to offload several out-of-favour stars in the January window as manager <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/will-chelsea-sign-new-centre-back-enzo-maresca-addresses-blues-transfer-plans-defensive-injuries-bite/blt7c2462ae5dc4605f" target="_blank">Enzo Maresca recently revealed that he will not be able to keep every player happy</a>.
