Chelsea transfer news – Manchester United join race for Mason Mount

The Top Flight reported earlier that Manchester United were planning to table an initial £55m bid for Mason Mount. This means they will rival Arsenal and Liverpool, but beat them to opening with an initial offer.

Todd Boehly would like to keep Mason Mount. However, the player doesn’t like the uncertain future of the club and he has not been given enough game time this season.

Chelsea transfer news – Chelsea target Jules Kounde

According to the Spanish outlet SPORT, Chelsea could finally sign Jules Kounde, as the Barcelona centre-back is tired of being misused under Xavi. Kounde’s natural position is in the centre of defence, but he’s being used as a right-back too much and sees no real effort by the club to rectify this constant misuse. Therefore, this dispute may open the door for Chelsea to swoop in and sign him.

Chelsea transfer news – Blues still want Victor Osimhen

After he was given a huge £140m price tag earlier, Chelsea fans began to feel concerned that their club would no longer be interested in signing Victor Osimhen. However, fear not because we all know how much Todd Boehly loves a big transfer.

According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, Chelsea would still like to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli this summer. Although, they will face competition from Manchester United who are also in the market for a big striker signing.
