The Story in 60 Seconds

Chelsea are reportedly open to selling right-back Malo Gusto and may lower their asking price, according to Sacha Tavolieri via Get Football News France. The 23-year-old French defender previously drew interest from Manchester City and other European sides, but Chelsea's £75 million valuation blocked a summer transfer.

Gusto's opportunities could become limited following Chelsea's failure to qualify for European football alongside the emergence of Josh Acheampong. While Gusto reportedly prioritizes establishing himself at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea could consider permanent sale offers ahead of the January transfer window.
