Chelsea remain keen on signing Gabriel Moscardo from Corinthians, and their €25 million bid is still on the table.
According to journalist Bruno Andrade, Chelsea have submitted an offer of around €25 million for Gabriel Moscardo and it remains on the table for now. Although the Brazilian outfit are holding out for a fee of €30 million, they have not rejected the offer from Chelsea yet. Talks are currently at a standstill between the two clubs but they are likely to resume in the coming days.
The 17-year-old defensive midfielder is highly rated in Brazil and he has a big future ahead of him. It is no surprise that a club like Chelsea is keen on signing him. The 17-year-old could develop into a quality player for the Blues in the coming seasons.
Chelsea have already added tremendous quality to their midfield this summer with the signings of Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo. It seems that they are not done in the market yet.
It will be interesting to see if they can convince Corinthians to accept that €25 million offer for Moscardo.
Atualização da negociação por Gabriel Moscardo: Corinthians pediu os tais 30 milhões de euros, mas ainda não descartou 100% a oferta de 21+4 milhões de euros, que continua em cima da mesa. Conversas estão paradas neste momento, mas devem ser retomadas nos próximos dias

The 17-year-old will be tempted to join the Premier League club. Chelsea are one of the biggest clubs in the world and the opportunity to play for them will be an attractive proposition for most players.
Furthermore, the opportunity to work with one of the best coaches in the world in Mauricio Pochettino will be hard to turn down. The Argentine manager has done well to nurture talented young players throughout his managerial career and he could help Moscardo fulfil his tremendous potential as well.
If Chelsea can sign him for the reported €25 million offer, the transfer could prove to be a major bargain in the long run.
Chelsea have shown a willingness when it comes to investing in top young talents since their takeover and it seems that they are looking to put together a formidable pool of young talent at the club.
Moscardo will certainly be an exciting prospect for them and he would be a superb long-term investment if he manages to fulfil his potential with the Blues in the coming years.
