‘I can’t wait to join them’ Player ‘really excited’ by potential Chelsea move as Blues prepare £17m bid
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Matheus Franca is reportedly feeling excited about the possibility of joining Chelsea as the club prepares to make a bid for the Brazilian youngster. According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea will make an opening offer of around £17 million, with potential add-ons increasing the overall fee. Romano also mentioned that Franca has been a player of interest for Chelsea for a long time and will be thrilled about the prospect of joining the club.
Chelsea has shown a keen interest in acquiring young talents from Brazil, with Angelo Gabriel already secured in a £12.8 million deal from Santos. Gabriel is expected to be loaned to Strasbourg for immediate first-team experience. It is likely that Franca will also be loaned out to the French club, given that Todd Boehly completed a full takeover of Strasbourg and appointed Patrick Vieira as their manager.
If Chelsea can provide regular senior football opportunities to both Angelo and Franca in a top European league next season, they could become significant players for the Blues in the 2024/25 campaign. The negotiations between Chelsea and Flamengo for the transfer of Franca are ongoing, and updates on the situation are expected in the near future.
