Chelsea are headed for another big summer transfer window. They have defensive signings as top priority. Now, they are said to sign a quality defender who is calm and composed.
Chelsea have qualified for the Champions League next season. Enzo Maresca has completed the first task on his agend. He will be now backed by the board to bring in some top players. The Blues are now keen to win major trophies.
The Italian boss wants to sign top players in almost all parts of the pitch. But, the Blues have defensive signings as the top priority. They are linked with multiple players across whole Europe. One of them is Marc Guehi of Crystal Palace.
Chelsea keen to sign Marc Guehi this summer
Guehi came through Chelsea’s academy and later joined Palace. He is now captain for the Eagles whom he recently helped to win their first ever major trophy. In addition, he has been a regular starter for England national team. The Blues are said to go after Guehi due to his amazing qualities like UCL finalist.
“Look at PSG, for example, somebody like Marquinhos. He looks like a midfielder playing at the back, he’s so composed and calm in possession. So Chelsea have looked at them, and that’s the type of player and influence they want at the back. They don’t have that at the moment but they’re working on it, that’s why they are looking at people like Marc Guehi who do a similar job” – Mick Brown speaking to Football Insider.
Marc Guehi is surely going to be available in the summer market. He will be out of contract at the end of next season. Hence, Palace are ready to sell him as he has turned out contract extension. But, the Eagles will surely ask for a hefty transfer fee as Guehi is wanted by multiple clubs across whole Europe.
