Chelsea defender Emerson Palmieri has joined Lyon on loan for the remainder of the season.
Lyon will pay a fee of around £420,000 for the 27-year-old Brazil-born Italy international, who can play at left-back or wing-back, who joined Chelsea from Roma in January 2018.
Emerson, who was part of Italy’s Euro 2020 winning squad, came off the bench in the Premier League opener against Crystal Palace, which was his 71st Chelsea appearance.
Chelsea are close to agreeing several loan moves for their fringe players.
