Chelsea and their priorities

Chelsea Prioritizes Cherki Signing. British media confirms that Chelsea has made Rayan Cherki their top priority in the wake of Mason Mount’s departure to Manchester United. The French international prospect is said to be receptive to Chelsea’s interest. Following Malo Gusto’s recent move to Chelsea. Another young talent from OL could potentially make their way to the English capital. Initially, Chelsea had targeted Gabi Veiga for the position, but intense competition for the highly-rated Spanish prospect has prompted a change in Chelsea’s plans.

Rayan Cherki has become the top target for Chelsea, with Todd Boehly’s team prepared to make a substantial investment of nearly €50 million to lure him away from Olympique Lyonnais. If such an offer is presented, it is expected that John Textor will give in. And the DNCG will cease their scrutiny of the club for the remainder of the summer transfer window.
