Lazio president Claudio Lotito is moving for Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi.
Lotito is in the market for a new attacker and Hudson-Odoi is emerging as a top target.
Il Messaggero says Lazio are turning to the Blues winger after a move for Sassuolo star Domenico Berardi stalled.
And Chelsea are keen to do business after Hudson-Odoi was left out of their US preseason tour squad.
Chelsea are willing to send Hudson-Odoi to Lazio on a season-long loan with a 20m permanent option.
