Chelsea left-back Emerson Palmieri does not want to speculate about his future.

The 26-year-old is third choice in his position at the club, behind Ben Chilwell and Marcos Alonso.

He is not important in the plans of manager Thomas Tuchel, which is why a permanent departure or loan seems likely.

The Italian has 12 months left on his contract, with Sky Sports Italia claiming Chelsea want £17.2 million for his signature amidst interest from Napoli and Inter Milan.

"For many months we have been talking about the market, about my return to Italy. Now I don't even want to think about it", Emerson said, via Sport Witness.

"Really, I don't care: I live in the present, play the European Championship and do everything to win it."
