Chelsea academy duo Ryan Kavuma-McQueen and Reggie Walsh are weighing up their loan options away from Stamford Bridge.
The pair are among the star players emerging from Chelsea's Cobham-based training centre and have been part of new manager Xabi Alonso's pre-season tour of Asia and Australia.
However, Portsmouth are plotting to take Kavuma-McQueen, 17, on a season-long loan deal into the Championship after Chelsea's tour and believe they are in pole position.
Furthermore, Walsh, also 17, is exploring his options due to a high-level of competition in Alonso's midfield.
Shim Mheuka, Ishe Samuels-Smith and Omari Kellyman are also available for loan and are likely to move to the Championship, although Kellyman is also considering options overseas.
It follows Genesis Antwi moving to sister club Strasbourg as a host of academy players get impressive loans, notably Jesse Derry joining Portuguese giants Sporting and Harrison Murray-Campbell moving to Belgian top flight side Kortrijk.
There are already seven academy stars on loan away from Stamford Bridge this summer.
