On the deadline day of the summer transfer window, Chelsea signed Denis Zakaria from Juventus on a loan deal with an option to buy.

The Switzerland international is yet to make his debut for the Blues, even though he has been on the bench for five matches.

Thomas Tuchel was in charge at Stamford Bridge when he joined Chelsea, and he was replaced by Graham Potter last month.

This seems to have an impact on his situation at the Premier League side, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

It’s said the midfielder has ‘completely gone off the radar’ after the arrival of the former Brighton & Hove manager at the west London club.

After leaving him out of the squad for the league ties, Potter had Zakaria on the bench in his side’s last win over Aston Villa.

It needs to be seen whether the player can will be given minutes at Chelsea in the coming weeks, because if not, Gazzetta state the hypothesis of the Juve owned player leaving the English club in January is ‘not excluded’.
