The Blues are still being connected to a few young players for the future as well as some major stars for the upcoming months. Having said that, let’s take a peek at the most important stories ahead of Chelsea’s next hectic day.
Chelsea gives the midfielder a boost
Chelsea’s chances of signing Gabriel Moscardo in January have improved since, according to Fabrizio Romano, the midfield wonderkid is not available for Barcelona because of their financial difficulties. According to the transfer expert, interested clubs will need to pay approximately €25 million to sign Moscardo, as CaughtOffside reported.
In August, Chelsea expressed interest in him, but Corinthians was not formally approached. Currently, five or six clubs from Italy and the UK are interested, but nothing has been agreed or moved forward as of yet. He’s currently too pricey for Barça.
Demanding Kylian Mbappe
According to a recent rumour, PSG star Kylian Mbappe has detailed the contract he would like to sign if he were to join a team this summer on a free transfer. It happens while the forward’s contract is about to expire and he is still being linked to moves to Real Madrid, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool.
