Chelsea are confident to sign a star defender this summer. They believe that they will beat other interested English clubs in the race.
The Blues have defender signing as their top priority for the summer window. They had a very quiet January window which suggests a big one is loading. They tried to sign a defender in January too, but failed to do so. Later, they opted to recall Trevoh Chalobah from loan.
Chelsea are keen to sell Chalobah and Disasi in summer. As of now, Disasi is on loan at Aston Villa. In addition, Badiashile also has his future unsecure at West London. This suggests that atleast 2 new defenders can land at Stamford Bridge in summer.
Chelsea confident to sign Marc Guehi this summer
Chelsea have Marc Guehi as their top priority. They tried to sign him in January but the deal never materialized. But, the Blues have not given up on the pursuit and instead are willing to speed it up in the summer.
Guehi will enter the final year of his Crystal Palace contract. He has rejected to renew as wants to join a bigger club. Along with Chelsea, the 24 year old also has interest from Newcastle United and Tottenham. But, The Mirror have reported that Chelsea are confident to beat both these clubs in race for Guehi.
Guehi will be available at low price due to his contract situation. Crystal Palace will accept lower price as it makes more sense than losing Guehi for free in summer. In addition, Chelsea have a sell-on clause which will help them to reduce the transfer fee even more.
Guehi left Chelsea as a youngster with bright future. He can rejoin them as one of the best Premier League defenders and also as an regular starter for England national team. The 24 year old will have a major role at his boyhood club.
