Chelsea have been linked with the move for the Norwegian winger Antonio Nusa.
A report from Fichajes claims that Chelsea have set their eyes on signing the 18-year-old Club Brugge winger but they are unwilling to pay the reported €30 million asking price. The report further states that Chelsea are hoping to negotiate a more reasonable asking price before moving forward with negotiations but the move is currently advancing.
Nusa is highly rated around Europe and he has a bright future ahead of him. He should prove to be a quality long-term acquisition for Chelsea. It will be interesting to see how the Blues accommodate him in their starting lineup if the transfer goes through in the coming months. They have already spent a substantial amount of money on players like Mykhailo Mudryk and Noni Madueke in recent months.
Nusa is likely to demand regular game time and Chelsea might have to cash in on one of their wingers in order to make way for him. The 18-year-old is a prodigious young talent and he will not want to sit on the bench at Stanford Bridge. He is likely to seek gametime assurances before completing the transfer.
He will add pace, flair and creativity to the Chelsea attack if he joins the club. The 18-year-old is versatile enough to play anywhere across the front three and he could be an asset for Mauricio Pochettino if Chelsea manage to get the deal done.
The reported €30 million asking price seems quite reasonable for a player of his potential in today’s market. He has the ability to justify the investment and he could even prove to be a bargain if he manages to fulfil his potential at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are one of the biggest clubs in the world and the opportunity to play for them could be an attractive proposition for the player. He will want to compete at the highest level and the Blues can provide him with that platform.
It will be interesting to see if the two clubs can come to an agreement in the coming months.
