Bournemouth also hold interest in Petrovic, and the Cherries are looking for a new keeper, having had Kepa Arrizabalaga on loan from the Blues last season.

Football Insider have reported the Cherries are accelerating their move for the 25-year-old, and Chelsea have given him the green light to find a new club.

The report adds Petrovic is valued at just over £20m , and would be Bournemouth’s new number one if the deal goes through.

Petrovic was named Strasbourg’s Player of the Season and played all but one Ligue 1 game as they qualified for the Conference League.

Chelsea consider Penders loan

With Petrovic heading for the exit door, Chelsea also face a decision with teenager Mike Penders, who joined last summer for €20m from Genk.

Penders remained on loan at the Belgian side last season, and Chelsea are said to have high hopes for the teenager.
