Reports have surfaced that Chelsea is on a very tight deadline if they want to secure a signing this summer.
Focus on Strengthening the Squad
All eyes are on the Blues as they look to bring in players to give the new manager the best possible platform for success.
Chelsea decided to hire Enzo Maresca to replace Mauricio Pochettino, and the lengthy contract they offered him shows their confidence in his ability to lead the team into the future.
Transfer Targets: Winger and Striker
It’s been reported that Chelsea has a winger and a striker on their shortlist to bolster their attack this summer.
Joshua Zirkzee on Chelsea’s Radar
One striker who has reportedly caught their attention is Joshua Zirkzee, following his impressive season at Bologna.
Urgency to Sign Zirkzee
The Serie A side has qualified for the Champions League next season, and their manager Thiago Motta was highly sought after as well. Some at Stamford Bridge even wanted Motta as their next head coach, though that didn’t happen.
According to GiveMeSport, Chelsea has been told it’s now or never if they want to sign Zirkzee. They face stiff competition for his signature, and Motta praised Zirkzee last season, calling him ‘special’.
Interest in Benjamin Sesko
Chelsea has several names on their shortlist for a new striker, with Benjamin Sesko reportedly high on the list.
Ready to Pay Release Clause
The Blues are reportedly prepared to pay the release clause fee to sign the RB Leipzig striker. However, they face significant competition to secure his transfer.
Shift in Focus
Victor Osimhen was Chelsea’s top target for an extended period, but it appears they have now dropped their interest in him.
In summary, Chelsea is under pressure to make key signings to strengthen their squad, with a particular focus on securing a striker and a winger to support the new manager, Enzo Maresca.
