#4 Lorenzo Insigne (Napoli)

SSC Napoli v Spal - Serie A
Insigne was a transfer target for Chelsea last season.

Insigne has already scored nine goals and further provided six assists for Napoli this season. He has been very influential for the current Serie A leaders as they look to end Juventus' dominance in Italian football.

The Italian international plays in a similar role like Hazard on the left-hand side of the attack and he also possesses good dribbling ability.

Not only he is a good dribbler, but an excellent crosser of the ball as well. He has shown brilliant off-the-ball movement and his fluid ability of combination play make him an ideal replacement for Chelsea's current talisman.

Also, Antonio Conte previously worked with him during his two-year stint with the Italian national team and knows him very well. It has been reported that Insigne was also a transfer target for Chelsea last season.

Though it will be very difficult to prise him away from the Stadio San Paolo, if Hazard leaves, Chelsea will have plenty of cash to spend and could tempt him to join the side.
