Chelsea are willing to include Ruben Loftus-Cheek as part of a deal for Inter Milan defender Achraf Hakimi, according to a report.

Chelsea are reportedly willing to include Ruben Loftus-Cheek as part of a move for Inter Milan right-back Achraf Hakimi.

The Englishman has struggled to become a regular fixture in the Chelsea side over the past few seasons, and he spent time on loan at Fulham last season as Scott Parker's men suffered a swift relegation back to the Championship.

Loftus-Cheek enjoyed regular game time at Chelsea under Maurizio Sarri in the 2018-19 season, though, and the Italian supposedly wants to reunite with the midfielder at his new club Lazio.

However, Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Loftus-Cheek could instead be part of a player-plus-cash deal for Inter Milan's Hakimi, as the Serie A champions drive a hard bargain for the Moroccan.

Chelsea are thought to be competing with Paris Saint-Germain for Hakimi's services, but the Blues are reportedly making progress in their attempts to sign the former Real Madrid man, despite Les Parisiens' interest.

Loftus-Cheek's existing Chelsea deal expires in 2024, and he has scored 12 goals and assisted 11 more in 82 appearances for the club across all competitions.
