Chelsea’s interest in PSG attacker Lucas Moura is well established. The Brazilian is out of favour in Paris thanks to the arrival of attacking superstars Kylian Mbappe and Neymar, and the club are desperate to sell some of their spare players to offset the huge sums they spent.
Seville based paper Estadio Deportivo carries quotes from the forward today where he mentions that “English football pleases [him] a lot”.
It’s the kind of flirting that’s been going on for some time, and while there’s no guarantee Chelsea will make an offer for him – and it seems like he’s a step above the type of player we’ve been signing in recent times – he would undoubtedly add some pace and dynamism to the Blues attack.
On the other hand, given Willian and Pedro can’t get into the team at the moment, where would Moura fit in? The desire for fresh blood can’t cloud our decisions when it comes to making sure we get the right people in to help Antonio Conte make this a successful second half of the season.
