The Blues are keen to have a new goalkeeper for the next season, but their effort to acquire one has faced a hurdle with their first bid being rejected.
Onana, who has managed to establish himself as a regular starter for the Serie A club, is understood to be Chelsea’s number one target.
In his 40 appearances this season, the Cameroonian international has kept 19 clean sheets and helped the Italian outfit reach the Champions League final.
With Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy failing to impress with inconsistent performances last season, a new goalkeeper at Stamford Bridge remains a priority.
