According to Ghanasoccernet.com, Chelsea are looking to split ways with left-back Baba Rahman permanently this summer.
Rahman joined the Blues in the summer of 2015, but after only one season at Stamford Bridge, he has spent the most of his time away from the capital.
He hasn't played for the Blues since his debut season and has spent every season on loan since then.
The Blues spent last season on loan with Championship side Reading, but they are now ready to cut the tie.
The Blues no longer intend to loan Rahman out and instead intend to sell him this summer, bringing an end to a more than five-year connection.
Chelsea are open to bids for the left-back, who is under contract with the club until the summer of 2024.
Rennes in France is interested in him, as are Middlesbrough and Reading, for whom he made 29 appearances last season.
The left-back is contemplating his future and wants to guarantee that whichever club he joins allows him to be in peak condition for the World Cup.
