Sunderland don sign Chelsea forward Marc Guiu on season-long loan as di Blues dey try reduce squad overload, especially for front players.
New boss Enzo Maresca go lead Chelsea out against Bayer Leverkusen for di first pre-season friendly on Friday. Di coach go dey happy say e get plenty options for him squad – but that one also mean say more players fit still comot before market close.
This summer, Chelsea don spend near £250m to sign 8 new players, including frontmen like Joao Pedro and Liam Delap. So e no surprise say dem dey move players like Guiu out for more game time elsewhere.
Guiu wey be 19 years old bin join from Barcelona for £5m last summer but only play 16 times for Chelsea last season. E no go shock anybody if more young forwards join am waka commot Stamford Bridge.
Who Else Fit Japa From Chelsea This Summer?
Since Pedro and Delap don land, e go hard make Nicolas Jackson still stay as third choice striker. Di Senegal striker score 10 Premier League goals last season but people don dey criticize am for poor finishing.
Now we dey hear say Newcastle United dey eye Jackson after dem miss out on other target strikers.
Christopher Nkunku still dey struggle with injuries and never show di fire wey Chelsea fans dey expect since e join in 2023. Raheem Sterling wey bin go Arsenal on loan last season no go return there, and Maresca no seem ready to use am for him plan too.
Chelsea Don Get Too Many Attackers?
If you look top clubs wey dey win big trophies, like PSG or Liverpool, dem sabi stockpile top forwards. But even that get limit.
For example, PSG get Dembele, Barcola, Kvaratskhelia, and Doue for just 3 forward spots. Same way Liverpool still dey chase Isak even after dem sign Hugo Ekitike.
Now Chelsea dey plan to still bring in Xavi Simons and Alejandro Garnacho — even though dem already get Jamie Gittens, Pedro Neto, Willian Estevao and more attackers for house. Di matter don begin confuse fans.
If Chelsea no careful, di squad go too choke with wingers and forwards, and that one fit spoil di growth of young ballers wey already dey Stamford Bridge.
