His availability has reportedly put the likes of Arsenal, Tottenham and Bayern Munich on red alert.

The player’s future at Stamford Bridge remains uncertain after he fell out of favour under current boss Antonio Conte.

The Italian is widely expected to leave Stamford Bridge this summer, which could open the door for a return to Chelsea.

Kenedy has been in sensational form for Newcastle since joining them on loan in January.
