Liverpool have been dealt a blow with the news that Chelsea have reportedly started working on a deal to sign Suso from Milan.
According to reports in Italy, as cited on Sport Witness, the Blues have taken steps towards a deal, with both the Blues and Liverpool interested in signing the player.
The Spaniard has a £34 million release clause in his contract and there are concerns in Italy that the player could be on the move.
Liverpool have previously been linked with a move to re-sign the player, while the report claims that there is also interest from Athletic Bilbao.
The Italian side have been working on a renewal in a bid to remove the release clause from his contract, but the Rossoneri may need to secure Champions League football in order to do so.
The former Liverpool man was heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge during the summer transfer window, with Maurizio Sarri said to be a huge admirer of the player.
