Chelsea winger Jamie Gittens could be loaned to Roma again in January
Summary

Roma plans to pursue another loan attempt for Chelsea winger Jamie Gittens in January. Gittens, who has only played 55 minutes this season and is currently sidelined due to an ankle injury, was the subject of interest from Roma during the summer transfer window. Chelsea initially rejected Roma's overtures, valuing Gittens as a key player under coach Xabi Alonso. However, with limited playing time for Gittens, Chelsea may reconsider their position to allow him to gain more minutes elsewhere. Reports suggest that Chelsea could ultimately be open to negotiating a loan deal if circumstances align.
