Which striker Chelsea should go for this summer – Talk Chelsea

Chelsea are nonetheless exploring choices for his or her new striker in the summertime, which remains to be the precedence place they’re taking a look at.

Reviews have urged that PSG are main this race, nevertheless it’s nonetheless a race that Chelsea are in – with many nonetheless believing that Victor Osimhen stays the precedence for The Blues hierarchy.

As I’ve mentioned, they’ve had a dream to signal Osimhen since they arrived on the membership and took over, however the alternative has not been there. Now, the chance is there this summer time, however you’re going to need to drop some severe money to land him.

His launch clause will probably be round £115m this summer time, which is a giant chunk of the switch finances at any membership.

After all, there may be now all of this discuss Chelsea complying with PSR and FFP guidelines attributable to loopholes discovered corresponding to promoting belongings between their very own firms. Whether or not they really find yourself getting away with that or not stays to be seen, I’m fairly positive that different membership house owners will probably be doing all they will to cease it. Nevertheless, as of proper now, it seems to be inside the guidelines, so possibly they’ve simply discovered extra good loopholes.

It nonetheless doesn’t imply we will and can be capable of hold dropping big quantities of money on bringing in additional new gamers. As I’ve mentioned, the membership wish to be smarter in expenditure and have checked out alternative ways to do that (mortgage to purchase/obligation, free brokers, and many others). We WILL nonetheless be promoting gamers this summer time no matter what occurs, and we will probably be smarter in what we usher in. It’s the final window of a four-window plan to rebuild the squad. So there will probably be at the least two or three positions signed on this summer time, nevertheless it’s not anticipated to be as loopy as previous home windows on the membership.

Even nonetheless, there may be that temptation to spend large on Osimhen, though Chelsea have been taking a look at methods to try to carry the price down and likewise, construction the discharge clause. There’s been some membership contacts, and loads of agent contact.

However ought to Chelsea be spending out that a lot cash on Osimhen alone, or ought to they go for a less expensive choice?

I like Osimhen, however I’m removed from satisfied on him, particularly for that price.

Ought to Benjamin Sesko (for a now greater reported launch clause of round £55m) be focused as an alternative?

Or ought to we go down a totally totally different route altogether and discover a less expensive choice corresponding to Serhou Guirassy, who has scored 26 targets in 27 video games for Stuttgart in Bundesliga this season and who will reportedly be accessible for lower than £15m this summer time?

Or maybe a Victor Boniface of Leverkusen, a participant who can be accessible for round £50m this summer time, needs to be focused?

Ivan Toney, additionally nonetheless on our record, I perceive can be accessible for round £40m this summer time – Brentford will probably push for a bit extra.

Viktor Gyokeres can be nonetheless one to observe, and he has a launch clause of round £85m, which is so much – however he’s a prolific goalscorer.

So what route ought to Chelsea take?

Is there another choice you’d want? Please put your selection within the feedback…

Personally, I’m nonetheless very cut up on this, however my intuition tells me to keep away from £115m on Osimhen and to go for a less expensive choice. I’d prefer to see an skilled choice as nicely even when I do like Sesko, and one who has the bodily presence and stature to have the ability to maintain the ball up and be an aerial beast in addition to a little bit of a fox within the field.
