Chelsea defender Papy Djilobodji has emerged as a transfer target for Ligue 1 side Marseille, according to reports.

The 27-year-old centre-back only joined the Blues from Nantes in the summer, but is yet to make a Premier League appearance for Jose Mourinho's side.

Marseille manager Margarita Louis-Dreyfus wants to bring Djilobodji in on loan in January, reports the Daily Star, with Chelsea rumoured to be willing to let him leave on loan.

Djilobodji, who has 12 caps for Senegal, made over 150 appearances for Nantes before making the switch to the Premier League.
