BVB, who are currently 11th on the league table after winning just eight of the 20 games they have played thus far, are understood to be covering the entirety of the player's salary.  

A buy option has been included in the deal, with the figure amounting to over for a value higher than the player's release clause of £40 million, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano. 

The Blues are also believed to be receiving a loan fee for the 21-year-old. 

Chukwuemeka joined Chelsea from Aston Villa in August 2022, and has made 32 appearances for the London outfit since joining. 

This season, the attacker has made just five appearances, with four coming in the UEFA Conference League and the other one coming in a Carabao Cup against League Two side Barrow AFC in September last year.
