It has been claimed that West Ham are in advanced talks to sign Chelsea defender Emerson
After struggling for game time at Chelsea and falling well down the pecking order at the club, he made the decision to go out on loan at Lyon, a move that has worked out quite well for the defender
He was an ever-present since crossing to the other side of the channel, and He has played 32 times for Lyon last term – scoring one goal and providing a further two assists – but he returned to the Bridge in the summer
And after the Blues completed the signing of Marc Cucurella earlier in the transfer window – the left-back was made surplus-to-requirements at Stamford Bridge and is allowed to leave the club
