It’s a great coup, but Chelsea are not going to be stopping there, especially in midfield. The midfield rebuild has always been touted as a priority at the club since the new owners arrived, and they will push for another ‘key target’ in that area in the summer, according to Football London.
According to their sources, Declan Rice remains a key target for Chelsea despite Arsenal working hard to try to lure him to the Emirates Stadium.
