The 24-year-old Brazilian was linked with the Blues following his impressive displays in the Europa League this season.
And after informal talks with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich, Taison has revealed he is keen to link up with former teammate Oscar.
The pair played together at Internacional prior to his move to the Ukraine.
He told local newspaper Diario Popular: "I went to England (some weeks ago) just to take a look. I talked to the president.
"I see Oscar, who I played alongside at Internacional, and I want to play with him again."
Taison's agent Diego Dornelles has, meanwhile, refused to rule out a January move for his client.
He said: "The club want him to stay, but there are many things coming."
