Chelsea are looking to send Ruben Loftus-Cheek out on another loan spell before the transfer window closes this month, reports The Sun.
Thomas Tuchel was full of praise for Loftus-Cheek after Sunday's pre-season win over Arsenal but admits he still has a lot of work to do to become a Chelsea regular.
Loftus-Cheek has spent a significant portion of the last four years out on loan at Crystal Palace and Fulham.
The 25-year-old made his Premier League debut for Chelsea during the 2014/15 campaign but has only started 15 league games in total for his boyhood club.
Chelsea are well stacked in midfield areas and Tuchel is happy for Loftus-Cheek to go out on loan again in order to find regular first team football.
Loftus-Cheek started 21 times for Fulham in the Premier League last season and made a further nine appearances from the bench but the Cottagers were relegated.
The former England international only managed one goal in that time and lost possession as a result of an unsuccessful touch 2.4 times per game.
