The upcoming season looks set to be challenging for Demba Ba as he is not the preferred choice for the center forward position under Chelsea’s manager, José Mourinho. In a recent match against Manchester United, Mourinho opted to play an attacking midfielder in the central role, and when he did bring in a striker, it was Fernando Torres, not Demba Ba.
Facing competition with other forwards like Romelu Lukaku, Ba anticipates limited playing time with Chelsea. There are reports suggesting that AS Roma has expressed interest in signing him, but the decision is yet to be made. Additionally, there’s a possibility of a return to Newcastle, where Ba enjoyed success with 29 goals in 54 matches. The Magpies are reportedly considering the option of bringing him back to St James Park, possibly on loan. The situation remains dynamic, and Ba’s future in the upcoming season is yet to be determined.
