Chelsea are plotting a summer bid of around €70 million to sign Atletico Madrid star. The star is very young and having great season at Spain right now. He will fit perfectly in Chelsea’s plans for summer.
The Blues had a very quiet January transfer window in which they signed only one new player. They signed Mathis Amougou who will be sent on loan to their sister club Strasbourg. This suggests that the Blues have a big summer window ahead of them.
Chelsea are said to sign some midfield stars in summer. It is due to the departures of Casadei and Chukwuemeka. Chukwuemeka is on loan right now, but is still on the chopping list in summer. In addition, Dewsbury-Hall has also expressed his desire of leaving the club.
This will require some new additions to the squad. The Blues are set to sign a versatile midfielder who can prove as backup for both central and holding position. In addition, they wang him to be young so that he can serve as long-term solution.
Chelsea keen to sign 21 year old Spanish midfielder
According to Fichajes, the Blues are keen to sign Pablo Barrios this summer. They are willing to offer Atletico as much as €70 million. The Spanish giants can very likely part ways with Barrios for proper value. However, it is still very early to predict anything about summer transfer window.
Barrios can play as both holding and central midfielder. He has been with Atletico since his younger days. He first broke in their senior team in 2022/23 season and ever since has not looked back.
Barrios has so far played 85 games for Atletico’s senior team. He has registered 3 goals and 5 assists so far for the club. In addition, he has also made his debut for the Spain national team.
