Chelsea are advancing in club-to-club talks with Atalanta for defender Honest Ahanor.
According to Fabrizio Romano, this comes after Ahanor agreed personal terms with the Blues.
Ahanor, who was born in Italy to Nigerian parents, is viewed by Chelsea as a player for the future.
He is primarily a left-footed centre-back but can also play at left-back, giving Chelsea another versatile defensive prospect.
