One Chelsea star is wanted by German giants in the upcoming summer transfer window. The players is currently with them on loan and the club are heavily interested to turn it into permanent move.
The Blues are set for a busy summer transfer window. They are set to sign a striker, winger, midfielder, keeper and atleast 2 defenders. But, they will also need to part ways with some of their current stars to generate funds and balance PSR.
Chelsea star wanted permanently by German giants in summer
The star in question here is Carney Chukwuemeka who is currently on loan at Borussia Dortmund. The German outfit paid €1 million to the Blues to secure his services until the end of the season. They also have an option to buy at the end of the season.
Sky Sports Germany have reported that Dortmund are keen to sign Chukwuemeka permanently in summer. They are impressed with the 21 year old and believe that he can play a big role for them. But, the report also adds that Dortmund will be able to sign him under only one condition.
The German giants need to qualify for the European competition in order to sign Chukwuemeka. If, they fail to do so it will be very hard for them to keep the 21 year old. However, Chelsea will still like to sell him in the summer window.
Chukwuemeka has a £40 million release clause in his Chelsea contract. The Blues tried to sell him in summer 2024 but were demanding his full release clause. This caused the interested clubs to drop the plans of signing 21 year old.
Chukwuemeka has played only 35 games since the beginning of 2022/23 season. He has also been injury prone and hence no club will agree to pay £40 million. The Blues can be seen very likely to lower their demands in the summer window.
