Will José Mourinho refrain from acquiring a striker this winter? This question arises in light of the recent information provided by the Daily Telegraph on Friday.
According to the English tabloid, Chelsea’s manager, seeking offensive reinforcements to address the lackluster performance of his Torres-Eto’o-Ba trio, might exercise patience and delay any signings until the summer, focusing on the Wayne Rooney transfer. This information is corroborated by reports from our colleagues at The Times, who specify that the English international will have only one year left on his contract with Manchester United in June 2014. This remaining year could potentially be bought back by Rooney to facilitate his transfer to Chelsea.
However, the confirmation of this information remains uncertain. Given Chelsea’s struggles in the attacking department throughout the season, it seems challenging to envision that the Blues will not bring in another center forward this winter. Despite being expected at Stamford Bridge last summer, Wayne Rooney’s transfer to Chelsea did not materialize.
