The Blues are pushing hard to sign Boca Juniors wonderkid

The Blues are advancing to sign Boca Juniors talent Aaron Anselmino. The talented Argentine defender has a transfer value of £17m.

Why Chelsea want the Boca Juniors talent?

Argentine defender Aaron Anselmino is a versatile defender. He can play in multiple positions such as center back, wing back and central defensive midfielder. His main role is to stop opponent’s attack. On top of that he has close ball control. For this reason he is calm and composed with the ball at his feet. He is a modern defender who has both defensive as well as offensive attributes. Aaron Anselmino can also play progressive passes that can easily break any defensive line or any opponent press. He is attracting a lot of interests from European clubs.

Possibility of the transfer

According to FootballFanCast Chelsea is closing on a deal with Boca Juniors for the Argentine defender. The defender will cost the Blues around £17m. The Blues have defenders like Axel Disasi, Levi Colwill, Benoit Badiashile, Tosin Adarabioyo. Since 2023 Todd Boehly has been investing in those players whom the squad needs the most. Players like Cole Palmer, Malo Gusto, Axel Disasi, Moises Caicedo, Nicolas Jackson are the results of their new transfer strategy.

If they can pull of this signing, it will certainly be a good addition to the squad. Thiago Silva has left Chelsea for Brazilian club Flamengo. He has left a big void at the Stamford Bridge. The Blues will certainly miss the leadership ability of Thiago Silva. So, the team need a defender like Anselmino who can keep ball possession and make forward passes because it will help the team to develop goal scoring opportunities.

Till now there is no agreement between Chelsea and the player. But both parties are negotiating in a constructive way. They are trying to find a solution which will be beneficial to each other.

Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said, ‘In defence, Chelsea remain on a mission to sign Aaron Anselmino. Chelsea keep working on that, they are in active talks with Boca Juniors. Despite Manchester United also being linked, for now we will have to wait and see if other clubs will enter the race. For now, talks are with Chelsea now and they are trying to find a solution under the value of the release. Many people talk very highly of his potential, but of course he’s still very young, so it would be another signing for the future for Chelsea.
