Chelsea Transfers

[mkh 383]

‼️Chelsea are in the market for a powerful number nine, and are looking at Liam Delap, Benjamin Sesko, Viktor Gyökeres and Alexander Isak, although Chelsea won't move for the latter unless they feel Newcastle are genuinely prepared to sell.

Osimhen is looking most likely to move to Saudi Arabia, having come close to joining Al-Ahli before the Jeddah-based side eventually added Ivan Toney instead. Several Saudi clubs have expressed an interest in Osimhen, including Al-Qadsiah.

Liam Delap on the radar of Chelsea, MUFC and Newcastle. And MCFC have a buyback clause.🚜
- £40m relegation clause
- Delap keeping options open, but expected to give preference to clubs with European football
- Leipzig and Leverkusen have also enquired.

 

🟡Chelsea are also looking at Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško, who has a variable release clause currently set at €70m, but it could rise higher based on performance-related criteria.

 

🟢Although Chelsea tried for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen last summer, it is looking less likely they will revisit a deal for the Nigerian forward. 

Osimhen hasn't changed his wage demands, and Chelsea are also strict on their own incentive-driven wage structure.

It is our understanding Arsenal have been granted permission from Sporting CP to explore personal terms with the camp of Viktor Gyökeres. Hasan Çetinkaya (agent) who is also a long term friend of Mikel Arteta will now discuss key factors on the players side with Andrea Berta.

Andrea Berta is pushing for Viktor Gyökeres to be strongly considered to lead the Arsenal attack next season with interest first being reported by @David_Ornstein.

 

🔦Bynoe Gittens is VERY HIGH on Chelsea’s list. Liverpool also monitored him for months.

Chelsea's two sporting directors, Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart, have continued to look at younger options and are believed to be keen on the likes of Benjamin Sesko, Liam Delap and Jonathan David as we head into final leg of the season.

I don’t think Delap & Guehi are TOP class or anything but I’d actually welcome both in the summer at this point just because I’m sick and tired of players coming in from other leagues and flopping. I’m not saying we shouldn’t buy non-PL players at all this coming window, but filling our biggest areas of need with guys who can instantly settle and who have been playing PL football for years could be huge. 

We’re already going to have several young guys coming in like Estevão, Andrey Santos, and the midfielder from Sporting we just bought who will need time to settle in. Getting ready made, ready to slot in players is a must for me.

Names like Gittens scare me because he could be yet another Bundesliga wide attacker like Werner, Nkunku, or even Sancho who looked like world beaters there but flop in the PL.
