Chelsea 'eye swoop for Emanuel Vignato'

Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Chievo attacker Emanuel Vignato.

The 19-year-old came through the youth system at Chievo and has made 21 first-team appearances for the Italian outfit, including seven in Serie B at the start of the 2019-20 campaign.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Chelsea have scouted Vignato this season, with the Blues considering a swoop for the teenager once their transfer ban has come to an end.

The report claims that Bayern Munich, AC Milan and Inter Milan are also interested in the versatile attacker, who has been capped at Under-20 level by Italy.

Vignato largely operates as a right winger but has played in a central position for I Gialloblu this term.

Chelsea are currently banned from bringing in new players after breaching FIFA rules on signing youth players, but the Blues are reportedly hopeful that the suspension will be reduced on appeal.
