Getty ImagesTHE BIGGER PICTURE
The Blues are willing to work out a way with Dortmund, but have made it clear it would involve payment. However, the Bundesliga big hitters don't want to spend money on the 21-year-old and argue that should Chukwuemeka perform well, he will attract more interest at the tournament and it will be easier for Chelsea to offload him, while also providing game time to the midfielder, who was completely overlooked by Enzo Maresca before heading on loan in January.

Getty ImagesWHAT NEXT FOR DORTMUND?
Jamie Gittens' transfer to Chelsea has again reignited, with the London club willing to spend more and fill the €5-10m gap in the player's valuation that hindered the transfer earlier. The two sides maintain a good relationship and thus positive outcomes for both Gittens and Chukwuemeka are expected in the coming days.
