Chelsea target Anel Ahmedhodzic all but confirms he is joining Serie A side Atalanta after the Malmo defender's father accused his agent Markus Rosenberg of blocking a £7m move to Stamford Bridge

Chelsea are set to miss out on a move for Malmo defender Anel Ahmedhodzic as the 21-year-old has appeared to confirm a summer move to Atalanta.

The Bosnian defender has been scouted by the Blues several times and the Premier League side made a £7million move for the centre-back towards the back end of last year.

But a Stamford Bridge moved fell through for Ahmedhodzic, who was at Nottingham Forest before joining Swedish club Malmo in 2019 and the player now seems to be on his way to Italy.
