Over the previous few days it has change into much more clear that regardless of which striker Chelsea go for in the summertime, they are going to face actual competitors for any of the names we’ve seen linked.
That is why Champions League soccer this season has change into much more necessary. Though as I did report yesterday, the one participant I do know that it isn’t important for at this level is Victor Osimhen. I’d in all probability put Liam Delap in that class too.
However for different prime striker targets akin to Vitkor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko, I’d in all probability say they are going to be ideally in search of a UCL membership.
Arsenal at the moment are specializing in Gyokeres, based on a bunch of dependable retailers over the weekend, and they’re additionally now closely linked with Sesko as effectively.
Arsenal, identical to Chelsea, would like to signal Alexander Isak, however the quoted price we maintain listening to for him could be round £150m. So neither Chelsea or Arsenal might be dropping that on him.
This implies Arsenal at the moment are chasing names Chelsea are closely linked with as effectively, which may current an actual drawback as they’re getting Champions League soccer this summer season, whereas Chelsea’s place continues to be on a knife-edge.
Manchester United have been reliably linked with Osimhen as effectively final week and I’ve even seen experiences saying he’s eager on going there as he simply needs to play within the Premier League.
And I even heard that each Arsenal and United have additionally been monitoring Delap. So whoever Chelsea go for, we’ve some powerful work to do.
It could be sensible to try to get a pre-deal achieved, however I do know that additionally not many names will agree that till they see if Chelsea get UCL soccer or not.
Numerous golf equipment are in for a giant identify striker this summer season, so the competitors goes to be rife, and Chelsea want UCL soccer to supply to assist them of their quest.
