Chelsea are reportedly interested in the Barcelona midfielder Marc Casado, and they could offer €25-30 million for him.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Chelsea are looking to sign 22-year-old Barcelona midfielder Marc Casado in a €25-30 million deal the January transfer window. The homegrown midfielder is reportedly valued at €40 million, and it will be interesting to see if the two clubs can agree on a deal.
Casado is a tremendous talent with a bright future, and he could be a long-term investment for the Blues. The player has the physicality and technical attributes to do well in the Premier League, and he could form a solid partnership with Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo.
It will be interesting to see if Chelsea can get a €25-30 million deal across the line in January. Signing a player of his potential midway through the season would be a masterstroke. The player has all the tools to develop into a future star. Regular football in the Premier League will accelerate his development and bring out the best in him.
Chelsea are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they could provide the Spaniard with the platform to fight for major trophies as well. The Blues need to keep improving the squad if they want to fight for major trophies and get back to the top of English football. They have not been able to fight for major trophies in recent seasons.
However, the West Londoners are clearly on their way back. Chelsea have shown improvement under Enzo Maresca, and they managed to win a couple of trophies last season. They will look to build on that and push for the Premier League title and the UEFA Champions League now. Signing the right players will help them bounce back strongly.
Ideally, the 21-year-old midfielder will want to continue at his boyhood club, but Barcelona are going through financial difficulties, and they could sell him if the right offer is presented. The opportunity to move to the Premier League will be exciting for the youngster. He will look to continue his development with regular football at Chelsea if the move goes through.
