Chelsea are considering a move to sign Spanish forward of Guinea-Bissau descent, Ansu Fati.
Fati, 22, is set to leave FC Barcelona this summer after enduring a difficult campaign in the 2024/25 football season, where he struggled for game time.
Amid his expected departure, several top European clubs are looking at securing the services of the attacker.
In the latest information gathered from sources in the transfer market, Chelsea have joined the race to sign Ansu Fati.
The English Premier League club wants to continue investing in youth this summer and believe recruiting the young forward to improve the team’s attack.
Chelsea, however, faces strong competition from French Ligue 1 side AS Monaco.
The French club is leading the race for the signature of Ansu Fati. In their proposed deal, AS Monaco want to sign Ansu Fati on loan for one year with the option of signing the youngster on a permanent deal afterwards.
Barcelona are now considering the offer and are yet to sanction the move.
Chelsea must present a better offer to stand any chance of poaching Ansu Fati from under the nose of AS Monaco.
