Chelsea are now prioritizing a deal for Lamine Camara, with the Blues looking to strengthen their midfield options. The Sénégal international would welcome a move to Chelsea, which would allow him to take his career to the next level. However, Chelsea will need to increase their offer if they are to secure Camara's signature.

In related news, Chelsea have also been working on a deal for Manu Koné, but negotiations with AS Rome are proving complex. Camara's potential departure could see him join Folarin Balogun on Chelsea's list of outgoing players, with the American striker having already agreed a move to Everton.
