Lavia only made the switch to Southampton from Manchester City last
summer for £14million and Southampton could seek up to £40million for the
Belgium international.
Although Southampton are in a strong negotiating position thanks to his £38,000-per-week contract, which has four years to run, dropping out of the Premier League could force them into doing business.
Galetti told GIVEMESPORT: “With the potential outgoing transfers of Loftus-Cheek and Kovacic, Chelsea are looking for two new midfielders.
“Romeo Lavia is at the top of their list and talks with Southampton have
already started.”
