Chelsea could resurrect their interest in Antonio Nusa

Chelsea are ready to reignite their pursuit of Norwegian winger Antonio Nusa, but the player seems intent on staying with Club Brugge

According to Het Nieuwsblad via Sport Witness, Chelsea are ready to reignite their interest in Antonio Nusa after failing to sign him in the summer. The Blues have set sights on the 18-year-old Norwegian winger and do not want to let go of him easily, but Club Brugge is keen on keeping him at least until the summer.

Chelsea resurrect their interest in Antonio Nusa

Chelsea failed with at least one bid for Norwegian teenager Antonio Nusa, as the Blues hierarchy desperately wanted to have him in their ranks. The winger has impressed with his performances for Club Brugge and the Norway national side.

Chelsea had made an offer, but Club Brugge thought it was less than their valuation. The Blues were unwilling to pay more than what they thought was right for the forward then. In response, many other clubs joined in the race, which threatened the Stamford Bridge outfit’s pursuit as his price might have gone high since.

Now, the Blues are eager to resurrect their pursuit of the 18-year-old winger and could present Club Brugge with a new offer in the coming days. The idea is to bring Nusa in January, and they decide how to proceed with his development.

However, the 18-year-old winger and Club Brugge are eager to continue their relationship, which could see the winger remain in Belgium. For now, Chelsea will keep trying and probably make an offer close to the Belgian side’s valuation, but things do look tricky in this pursuit.

Antonio Nusa’s immediate future looks secure

Any teenager would have jumped at the idea of playing for a club like Chelsea, where he would have made a lot more money. However, the winger feels there will be more offers on the table in the coming period, which might affect his decision to stay at Club Brugge.

However, in the current scenario, clubs like Fulham have already decided against paying more than necessary, considering Club Brugge are asking for around €30 million. For now, he might stay put in Belgian and wait for big offers in the summer.

His development has been good at Club Brugge, which has been a big reason for the club and the 18-year-old winger to choose a continued path rather than break away to join a big club elsewhere. In the summer, Chelsea will surely return to the table and probably not leave sight of the Norwegian winger.
