Chelsea may well have to give up on signing one player they really like after details emerge in a fresh sourced report this week.
The Blues tried a number of deals in the January window but all in all in ended up being a very bad window for the club and the sporting directors.
EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea have laid down ground work in deal to sign striker BEFORE Club World Cup!
The transfer window closed a couple of weeks back now and it was a very bland and strange one for Chelsea. They only made one signing and he is a player who is just expected to play as a deep backup option this season and then probably go on loan in the summer.
Other than that, Chelsea just loaned a bunch of players out with the only permanent one being Cesare Casadei to Torino in the end.
So we could now see a busier summer window for Chelsea as they might want to look at some of the players they tried for in the winter window.
One of those players was Nico O’Reilly from Manchester City, and GIVEMESPORT have a sourced update on that situation.
City want to keep midfielder
They claim Chelsea don’t believe Manchester City are going to budge on a deal for youngster Nico O’Reilly in the summer transfer window after the Blues showed an interest in January.
Man City put a block on any deal and insist that he is very much admired internally at the Etihad Stadium.
Their sources have additionally indicated that he is one of the players who will be targeted by Man City for a new contract in the coming months.
So Chelsea might not be able to repeat their Cole Palmer trick once again this time around, but it could still be a situation to watch going forward.
