Chelsea are reportedly hoping to complete a transfer U-turn in the coming months as they seek advice over how they can keep Saul Niguez in west London past the summer.
The Spanish midfielder arrived on loan from Atletico Madrid in 2020 but has failed to hold down a regular spot in the Chelsea team as his spell at the club got off to a slow start despite lofty expectations.
The Blues were not initially said to be keen on converting Saul’s loan into a permanent move, with a clause in his contract giving Chelsea first refusal if they wanted to purchase him.
