| Papy Djilobodji looks set for a move away from Chelsea |
Djilobodji joined the Blues from Nantes in the summer on a four-year deal for a fee of around £3million as Jose Mourinho sought a replacement for the ageing John Terry.
But the 27-year-old was only bought once a move for Everton star John Stones fell through, and Mourinho stated the centre-back was not his choice.
And he has struggled to make an impact at Stamford Bridge and is still waiting for his first taste of Premier League action for the champions.
His only appearance was off the bench in the last minute against Walsall in the Capital One Cup.
French newspaper L'Equipe claim Stuttgart are now reportedly set to offer the defender an escape route from Chelsea with an 18-month loan deal lined up.
The Senegalese international is desperate to play regular first-team football which the Bundesliga side can offer him.
Chelsea are happy for the defender to leave following his underwhelming start to life at the club.
