Chelsea outcast Baba Rahman set to be first exit after Frank Lampard axe in ANOTHER loan transfer away to PAOK Salonika

CHELSEA outcast Baba Rahman is set for another loan away from the club with PAOK Salonika, according to reports.

A move to the Greek side this month will be the left-back’s fifth since joining the Blues in 2015.

Baba Rahman is set for another loan spell away from Chelsea

Rahman, 26, arrived for a £14million fee but has made just 15 Premier League appearances in blue.

He has spent two seasons with Schalke before joining Reims and then Mallorca.

Having struggled to fulfill his early potential, Rahman will now join the Greek Super League side on a six-month deal, according to Sport24.

Rahman has battled back from knee injuries but he won’t get the opportunity to prove himself to new boss Thomas Tuchel until the summer.

The Ghana international will become the first player to leave Stamford Bridge since Frank Lampard’s sacking on Monday.

And he might not be the only left-back leaving the club this January.

Reports in Mundo Deportivo suggest Barcelona are preparing a swoop for Marcos Alonso.

Spaniard Alonso has played just three times for the Blues this season.

But Tuchel’s appointment could change matters with the German boss eager to assess his players before casting them aside.

Before Lampard was sacked on Monday, the Spanish international was on a list of TEN Chelsea transfers that could happen this month.

And Crystal Palace were recently said to be eyeing a move as a replacement for Patrick van Aanholt.
