Emerson Palmieri provides update on Chelsea future

Emerson Palmieri has suggested that he will look to leave Chelsea during the January transfer window.

The 26-year-old was strongly linked with a move away from the Blues over the summer, but the deadline passed with the full-back still at Stamford Bridge.

Emerson has been restricted to just four appearances this term, though, and has not played a single minute of Premier League football during the 2020-21 campaign.

Speaking on international duty with Italy, the defender has hinted that he could leave Frank Lampard's side at the start of 2021 in search of more regular action.

"Here at the national team I play, I have fun and I'm fine," Calciomercato quotes Emerson as saying.

"The coach told me that the best solution for me is to play, at Chelsea or in another team, let's wait for the next two months and see what will happen."

Inter Milan are allegedly interested in signing Emerson during the winter transfer window.
