Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Bournemouth and West Ham United.
Loftus-Cheek has found himself as a bit-part player under Maurizio Sarri this season, with seven starts and five substitute appearances coming in all competitions.
Sarri has previously ruled out the possibility of the England international leaving in January but according to The Sun, the Blues will still receive offers for the 22-year-old's services.
The report claims that both the Cherries and the Hammers are ready to launch loan bids at the midway point of the campaign with the view of a permanent transfer in the summer.
Bournemouth are searching for a replacement for Lewis Cook - who will miss the rest of the campaign through injury - while West Ham are looking for more creativity from central areas.
Loftus-Cheek still has just over two-and-a-half years remaining on his contract at Stamford Bridge.
