According to The Daily Star, Chelsea winger Pedro is keen to return to La Liga at the end of the season; whilst The Metro report that Leicester City are interested in signing Manchester United’s Andreas Pereira on loan.
The Spain international has struggled to impact since arriving at Stamford Bridge from Barcelona in the summer, finding just two goals and two assists in 18 Premier League appearances – three of which came during his Chelsea debut against West Brom back in August.
The Daily Star claim that although Guus Hiddink is desperate not to weaken his squad this month as the Blues looking to battle their way back from 14th place, the west London club could sanction a departure at the end of the season. La Liga sides Valencia and Villarreal have been mooted as potential next destinations for the out-of-form 28-year-old.

Meanwhile, Leicester City are reportedly interested in loaning Manchester United youngster Andreas Pereira.
The 20-year-old is widely regarded as one of the Old Trafford outfit’s most exciting youngsters, having netted for Brazil during the 2015 U20 World Cup final and notched up nine appearances across all competitions since breaking into Louis van Gaal’s first-team squad at the start of last season.
But the playmaking midfielder has clocked just 78 minutes in the Premier League so far this term and has suggested to Globo Esporte that he could go out on loan to improve his chances of making it into the Brazil squad for next summer’s Olympics in Rio.

As quoted by Sky Sports, he told Globo Esporte; “I’m a United player, [but] I’ve seen in the press that there are various other clubs interested. I don’t know if United want to loan me out but I’m working hard to get more opportunities.
“It’s their decision. I’m focused on doing my job at United, [but] of course I want to be more visible to those in Brazil. So I need to play more and get more chances. Playing in the Olympics is a big dream of mine.”
Citing the same interview, The Metro report that Leicester City are one of the interested parties and have already contacted United over a potential deal.
