The Serie A side are looking to lure the defender away from Stamford Bridge ahead of the upcoming season.

Lazio are keen on signing Chelsea's Baba Rahman this summer, according to The Mirror.

The 22-year-old only arrived at Stamford Bridge last season from Augsburg for round £22 million, but has failed to establish himself in the first team.

Lazio's interest could offer the out-of-favour defender an escape route, but they won't be willing to match the fee The Blues paid for him.

Will the club be willing to make a loss on the defender and let him leave?
