Chelsea will look to part ways with Carney Chukwuemeka during the January transfer window and the Blues face a major problem in trying to move the 21-year-old on.
The midfielder has been with the London club since 2022 having made the transfer to Stamford Bridge as part of a £20m deal with Aston Villa.
