Antonio Rudiger, who is out of contract in the summer, is said to be a target for Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, and other clubs.
After the end of the season, he is free to talk to foreign clubs about a possible move, but he will have to wait until the summer.
The German international's camp has not ruled out the possibility of him remaining at the club.
At the start of the season, the Blues' most recent offer was rejected by the player and his representatives as it promised to pay him only half of what the club's top earners make.
