Chelsea submit blockbuster €100m offer to land 28-G/A target in summer
Chelsea remains interested in signing Fermin Lopez from Barcelona at the end of the season.
According to reports from Spain, Chelsea are now back in the hunt for the 22-year-old Barcelona midfielder, and they have put forward an offer of a €100 million in order to get the deal done. However, Barcelona are not keen on selling the midfielder any time soon. They believe that he is a key member of the team, and they have no intention of negotiating his departure.
Chelsea have been linked with the player for quite some time, and the offer suggests that they are determined to get the deal done. The report claims that they have identified the Barcelona player as a priority signing. It remains to be seen whether they decide to revise their offer and come back with a more lucrative proposal.
Lopez is unlikely to force an exit from Barcelona. He is enjoying his football with his boyhood club, and he has no reason to leave them. Barcelona are fighting for major trophies, whereas Chelsea is in the midst of a rebuilding period. It will be difficult for the Premier League club to convince the player.
That said, it is no surprise that they are keen on Lopez. They need more creativity, technical ability, and control in the middle of the park, and Lopez will help create opportunities for his teammates and add more technical ability to the team.
The 22-year-old playmaker is in spectacular form this season, scoring 12 goals in all competitions. He has picked up 16 assists along the way as well. There is no doubt that he could transform the attack if he joined the club.
