With Oscar and Mikel Obi looking to leave Chelsea this January, Antonio Conte will be bound to make some reinforcements next month.

Genoa midfielder Diego Laxalt’s agent Vincenzo D’Ippolito revealed Conte is interested in bringing the 23-year-old to the Premier League.

“Genoa believe in him, but they are always open to selling their players for the right offer,” D’Ippolito told Calciomercato.

“He’s not going to leave in January, but the club will definitely listen to offers at the end of the season.

“There are many clubs that have been scouting him. Fiorentina have been watching him for a very long time, they also wanted to sign him last summer, but there are also requests from the Premier League.

“Conte had been scouting Laxalt when he was in Italy and he’d love to take Laxalt to Chelsea now.”
