Chelsea Bid To End Emerson Loan Rejected By Lyon
French Club Olympic Lyon has bluntly turned down an offer from Chelsea to end Emerson Palmieri's loan.
The Italy international is on a season-long loan at OL, though Chelsea want to bring him back this month due to a season-ending injury to Ben Chilwell.
But Le Progres says the loan deal does not include a recall option, leading Chelsea to having to pay a fee to OL to break the agreement.
An opening offer of €4m has already been turned down by OL.
OL are reluctant to lose Emerson given their own slim left-back options.
