Chelsea could yet go back to the market in the summer and try to make another huge splash despite spending nearly £300 million in the January transfer window alone to alter their roster with eight new faces. Even though they are aware they aren’t among the favorites to sign Bellingham, according to The Telegraph, they are prepared to attempt and persuade him to go to Stamford Bridge in the summer.
Bellingham is anticipated to depart Dortmund during the summer transfer window as his star is still rising in Germany. In an effort to maintain open lines of communication over a future transfer, Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali have “worked hard” to build ties with Bellingham’s officials.
Chelsea is aware that Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Liverpool are all interested in signing the England midfielder, and they are not among the favorites to do so. But they have made him one of their top targets, and it is thought that they would go to “heaven and earth” lengths to try to capture the boy.
The allegation goes on to state that Boehly and Eghbali watched Bellingham dominate the game while they were present for England’s World Cup opening against Iran in Qatar.
Despite paying a British record price for Enzo Fernandez, the Blues are still looking for another midfielder, and they intend to wipe out their roster in the summer to stay in compliance with Financial Fair Play regulations. He would command a hefty transfer cost and salary.
