Marko Marin was another player who signed at Chelsea along with great expectations. But the German winger was nothing short than a flop in London and his Blues career was short lived.
So Chelsea fans will be pleased to hear that the Marin their club are tracking to potentially make an an attempt to sign, is actually 18-year old Dinamo Zagreb winger Antonio Marin.
He is one of Croatia’s most exciting talents and is being tracked by Manchester City and Villareal, as well as Chelsea, according to Sky Sports.
Marin made his breakthrough into the Dinamo first team last season and has already been capped twice for the Croatia under-21 side. He has a contract until 2024 at Zagreb.
Frank Lampard’s side are of course still banned from signing players over the age of 16, but there is a chance they will have the ban lifted by January if successful in their appeal.
