Per the BBC, talks did take place, while a £34 million offer was ultimately turned down.
While Atleti have not stated they will refuse to sell, they do not want to part with Omorodion.
The Madrid-based club are hoping that he can become a regular starter in the near future.
Chelsea are also chasing Aston Villa's 20-year-old Colombian Jhon Duran in the off-season.
