Chelsea remain active in the transfer market, showing interest in another Premier League forward even after securing deals for Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and João Pedro.
The Blues have already made several additions ahead of the new campaign, including Liam Delap and Mamadou Sarr, as they look to strengthen under Enzo Maresca, who guided the team back into the Champions League in his debut season. ..Continue Reading
Chelsea have finalized terms with Borussia Dortmund for Bynoe-Gittens, who is set to sign a seven-year contract. The 20-year-old winger will cost the club £55 million and has already completed his medical.
They’ve also agreed a deal worth up to £60 million for Brighton’s João Pedro, who had drawn interest from Newcastle United.
The 23-year-old has accepted a seven-year contract and will travel to the U.S. for a medical before joining the squad for the Club World Cup.
Despite these major signings, Chelsea are still pursuing further attacking reinforcements. According to reports, they continue to monitor West Ham United’s Mohammed Kudus.
The Ghanaian international is also attracting attention from Saudi Pro League clubs, but he is not interested in a move to the Middle East at this stage of his career. Tottenham Hotspur are also keeping a close eye on his situation.
Kudus joined West Ham from Ajax in the summer of 2023 for £35 million and impressed in his first season, scoring 14 goals across all competitions. However, his output dipped last season, with just five goals to his name.
He has a release clause of £85 million for Premier League clubs, which is only active during the first ten days of July.
Chelsea’s pursuit of more attackers comes after they decided not to make Jadon Sancho’s loan move permanent.
They are also expected to be without Mykhailo Mudryk, who faces a lengthy suspension following charges from the FA.
