Chelsea are reportedly leading the race to land Barcelona starlet Gavi, whose price tag is €100 million.
Chelsea have taken it as a challenge to sign the best young talents in world football under Todd Boehly, and the list would be inconclusive without including Barcelona sensation Gavi to it.
The Spanish international continues to be a key player for both club and country. It is not easy to be a regular for such European giants at the age of 19, but Gavi makes it seem effortless. This more or less gives us a clear idea of his talents.
While his commitment to Barcelona is irrefutabl,e having come through the club’s ranks, the Catalans could be forced to sell him given their precarious financial position. As things stand, Gavi and Pedri are the players who can fetch the most value. So, it makes sense for them to cash in if the situation demands.
According to Sport via Sport Witness, Chelsea are the favourites to land the teenage sensation and will need to fork out around €100 million to secure his services. Whether it will prove to be too good to refuse for Barcelona remains to be seen.
Chelsea could do with a midfielder of Gavi’s attributes. The signings of Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia have given them security. But they can do with someone who is technically better than Conor Gallagher to push forward. Gavi fits that bill and can be a major asset for the club for years to come.
The Blues are showing signs of life under Mauricio Pochettino, and we saw vestiges of it against Arsenal. Adding a few more players in the right positions and the right temperament can make all the difference in the world.
Barcelona, for their part, will not want to lose such an asset if they can avoid it. Hence they still hold significant leeway when it comes to negotiations. Boehly has more or less been able to throw money at problems and has seen the approach work wonders. The likes of Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo did not come cheap.
Gavi can be a really good signing for Chelsea for years to come. Whether the Blues have a real shot or not will become clearer as we get close to the 2024 summer transfer window.
