Chelsea winger Charly Musonda wanted by Roma to replace former Blues player Mohamed Salah

Chelsea winger Charly Musonda is wanted by Roma.

The Italian side want the young Belgian on loan to fill the void left by Mohamed Salah while he joins up with Egypt for the Africa Cup of Nations.

Musonda endured an inauspicious first part of the season on loan with Real Betis and returned to Stamford Bridge this month to resume training with Antonio Conte's first team squad.
