Chelsea make a fast move to sign ‘special’ £43m attacker, Tuchel desperately wanted him
According to a report from Football Transfers, Chelsea has shown interest in signing Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele during this summer’s transfer window. Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino is said to be a fan of Dembele and would like to pursue a move for the 26-year-old.

There is no indication that Dembele is actively seeking a move to the Premier League, and Barcelona is under no pressure to sell him.
If Chelsea were to secure Dembele’s signature, it would be an exciting addition to their squad. The French international is known for his spectacular performances as a wide player, showcasing excellent dribbling, attacking threat, and pace. However, his injury history raises concerns about his fitness and availability.
It’s worth noting that former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel was reportedly keen on signing Dembele last summer. Now, with Pochettino considering him as a potential fit at Chelsea, it adds another layer of interest to the ongoing transfer saga.
While many Chelsea fans prioritize signing a new midfielder and striker, Dembele would be seen as an excellent bonus addition to the squad if the club manages to secure his services.
