Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano is the man who never sleeps, and he put out his latest info on Jeremy Jacquet to Chelsea over night.
It’s the big Chelsea transfer story of this January window so far, with The Blues looking to get a deal tied up to sign the rising French centre back from Rennes this month.
Sources: Chelsea hold positive talks to sign Jeremy Jacquet and close on fee agreement!
Romano had the latest out on what is happening with transfer negotiations, with Chelsea’s directors out in France now looking to get a fee agreed with the French side.
Romano’s latest report
In quotes picked up on X, Romano said:
“Not an easy negotiation between Chelsea and Rennes for Jacquet. Rennes want really important money as they believe he’s one of the best young defenders in the world. New contacts this week to try get closer to final price and structure. Rosenior approved it.
“Chelsea owners and directors are involved working on the Jacquet deal. Rennes want to go over the Doku sale, which means their request is 70m euros.”
That equates to around £60.7m. Seems like a lot of money. But I believe Chelsea will be paying slightly less than that and will pay a lower base fee and have a favourable structure for them.
