Chelsea want to continue drowning their sorrows based on banknotes and more banknotes. Not satisfied with having ‘melted’ and with a total of 270 million in signings, the ‘blue’ club, driven by a bad start in the Premier made worse by yesterday’s defeat against Southampton (2-1), will go for more yet. ‘The Times’ confirms that the ‘blue’ club are in talks with Milan to sign Rafael Leao and that Arsen Zakharyan, Dinamo Moscow’s 19-year-old midfielder is also on the ‘blues’ agenda, having now made official the arrival of Wesley Fofana from Leicester, for whom they paid a fixed 82.5 million.
Chelsea’s interest in the Portuguese winger of Milan is only 23 years It’s been known for a few days now but it seems the London club have become more serious, although it won’t be easy, as Leao has been key to Milan’s resurgence and the ‘rossonero’ club want to get some now. 90 million for him. With the aim of including an attacker and a midfielder before the market closes, interest in Zakharyan has also emerged, with a contract in dynamo moscow until 2024.
Leao sounded louder as the number 1 target for the left winger seemed to move away. As is also known, another option managed by Chelsea is Anthony Gordon, from Everton, for which the Stamford Bridge club is willing to pay 60 million. However, the possible arrival of Gordon, 21, has cooled in recent days. English said Frank Lampard his desire to go to Chelsea but the former ‘blue’ legend wants to keep him as long as he can.
However, Everton’s recent interest in Samu Chukwueze, Villarreal winger, could suggest Gordon’s possible departure from the London club.
Gvardiol, for 90 million
As if this was not enough, Chelsea will pay Leipzig 90 million Josko Guardiola 20-year-old Croatian central defender, according to Fabrizio Romano, although the defender will not wear ‘blue’ until 2023. Gvardiol is also wanted by Manchester City but the imminent arrival at the Etihad Stadium of another Bundesliga central defender , Manuel Akanji (Borussia Dortmund ), keeps him away from the ‘citizen’ club.
Waiting for Chelsea to exercise the 90 million option for Gvardiol, and if they decide to buy as well Rafael Leaothe ‘blue’ club could spend almost another 200 million more on signings to get closer to 500. Todd Boehly’s wealthy entity is crazy but it may be more.
