Chelsea have reportedly decided against triggering their buyback clause in the contract of Sassuolo winger Jeremie Boga.
The 23-year-old left Stamford Bridge for the Italian outfit in a £3.6m deal two years ago and has since gone on to score 11 goals and create five more in 52 games for the club - including eight goals and four assists this season alone.
That form has seen him linked with a move back to Chelsea, who are in the market for a new winger with out-of-contract duo Willian and Pedro looking increasingly likely to leave the club at the end of the season.
Reports earlier this week suggested that the Blues could activate the €15m (£13.4m) buyback clause in Boga's contract, but Sport Mediaset claim that they have no intention of doing so.
Chelsea could instead allow Sassuolo to waive the clause for a £10.4m fee and then sell Boga on for profit, with a number of clubs in Europe thought to be interested.
Napoli are understood to be leading the race, while AC Milan and Rennes have also been linked.
