Former Manchester United star wanted by Chelsea

Chelsea are considering signing former Manchester United star Andreas Pereira. The 28-year-old midfielder currently plays for Fulham. Chelsea are looking to bolster their squad this summer. Moreover, the Blues are keen to make a return to the Premier League top 4. Former Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca has joined Chelsea. The Blues are striving for a comeback after enduring a poor season. Chelsea finished 6th in the Premier League. But, they would lose their Europa League spot. Manchester United beat Manchester City in the FA Cup final to secure a place in the UEL 2024/25.

Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea have already made 5 signings this summer. Although they remain keen to strengthen their squad. The Blues now want Andreas Pereira. The midfielder was a flop at Man United. He has been unable to live up to his potential thus far. But, Maresca considers him to be a good player. The new manager wants Chelsea to push for him.

Pereira made a move to Fulham in 2022. According to en.wikipedia.org, he has made 82 appearances for them so far. Also, he has 8 goals for Fulham in the league. Pereira is yet to shine for his club or country. He played as a substitute for Brazil in Copa America.

Chelsea keen for Andreas Pereira

As per reports, Chelsea are willing to pay up to €42 million for the midfielder.

But, AS Monaco also want the midfielder. Although Chelsea would be a more viable option. Considering, he wants to stay in London. The Blues want him to replace Conor Gallagher.

According to metro.co.uk, Gallagher could be leaving Stamford Bridge. Especially, with his contract expiring next summer. Top clubs like Aston Villa, Tottenham Hotspur and Atletico Madrid want Gallagher. Meanwhile, the Blues want £50 million for the 24-year-old.

Chelsea pay and United profit

If Chelsea sign the Fulham midfielder, United will make profit. The Red Devils have a 20% sell-on clause. United will be quite content if the deal goes through.

Pereira is currently on a vacation. He will be joining Fulham for pre-season.

No doubt, the Brazilian is quite skilled. But the Blues will be keen to unlock his full potential. Andreas Pereira could become a top player at the Bridge. Provided, he remains consistent. Chelsea have a quite young squad as of now. Pereira will be bringing some much-needed experience.

Todd Boehly and the Blues are clear with their ambition. They are eyeing success. Also, their movement in the market suggests the same. Soon, Maresca could have a top team in his hands. Chelsea will also be aiming for continental success. They will feature in Europa Conference league.

Chelsea fans will be hoping to see their team perform better in the new season.
