Antonio Rudiger is expected to leave Chelsea during the summer transfer window.
The central defender is not in the plans of coach Frank Lampard and has been asked to leave the club.
Roma have demanded his return, as Chelsea are ready to loan him out and pay him half his salary.
The Giallorosi welcome their former star, as Rudiger had spent two years in the Italian capital from 2015 to 2017.
The 27-year-old likes returning to Olimpico, but he remains just a Plan B for Roma if Chris Smalling is not reached.
Anyway, Barcelona has also expressed interest, but the German is also a plan B for them if defender Eric Garcia does not come.
Chelsea are ready to loan him for a year and giving the team that will take him the option of buying for 20 million euros in the summer of 2021.
Rudiger has been a starter at Chelsea, but with the arrival of Thiago Silva and Malang Sarr, he is seen as coach Lampard’s fifth choice.
