Chelsea are losing their opportunity to sign Atlético Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez this summer.
The Blues are not interested in signing Saúl permanently, perThe Guardian.
Atlético Madrid want a permanent transfer, or a loan with an obligation to buy, Chelsea may not pursue a deal before the window closes on Tuesday night.
The La Liga champions are also scrambling to find a possible replacement for Saul, should he depart.
Such circumstances mean a move appears unlikely, which would make it difficult for Chelsea to bolster their central midfield options.
