Chelsea midfielder Kasey Palmer has reportedly been earmarked for a loan move to Championship side Blackburn Rovers until the end of the year.
The 21-year-old spent the first half of last season on loan at Huddersfield Town before joining Derby County on loan in January.
Palmer made 16 appearances for the Rams, scoring two goals, and helped them reach the Championship playoffs, where they lost out to eventual winners Fulham.
According to Sky Sports News, the England Under-21 international appeared set to return to Pride Park on loan, where he would have served under Blues legend Frank Lampard.
However, the report claims that Palmer will instead be moving to Ewood Park to become part of Tony Mowbray's Blackburn squad in their first season back in the Championship.
Palmer played a key role in Huddersfield's promotion to the Premier League in the 2016-17 season, scoring five goals in 27 appearances.
