Chelsea will soon complete their third acquisition in two days, according to Fabrizio Romano.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea will soon make Michael Olise their next significant acquisition.

He claimed that the Blues had activated the release clause regarding signing him this summer on YouTube.

With their recent flurry of signings, Chelsea has really gotten going in the transfer market, and they are now looking to add Olise’s name to their impressive roster.

After a protracted summer of negotiations, they were able to officially announce earlier this week that Moises Caicedo from Brighton had been signed.

Romeo Lavia’s transfer to Stamford Bridge is reportedly set to be completed by a medical today, which would round out that midfield addition.

Now, though, it appears that they want to improve their attacking options, paying special attention to creativity.

Ollie is headed to Chelsea.

According to Romano, Chelsea is now eager to finalize a deal to sign Olise away from Crystal Palace.

“I have heard for days that the clause has been removed,” he said. No. Both Chelsea and City took notice of it. Now that the player and his camp have indicated their willingness to join Chelsea, Chelsea has made the decision to move forward.

In a few days, Olise will become Chelsea’s third signing after the deal with the player’s agents is finalized and the deal’s structure is prepared. We’re about to start working on this.

Due to their continued high spending in yet another transfer window, it is likely that Chelsea will be almost done for the summer after this deal.

In the waning weeks of the season, a wave of outgoings is more likely to hit the market.

More news………

Moisés Caicedo has been signed by Chelsea in a British record-breaking £115 million deal.

Moisés Caicedo has been acquired by Chelsea in a deal worth a British record $115 million from Brighton.

After spending £106.8 million on another midfielder, Enzo Fernández, during the winter transfer window, Chelsea has broken the British transfer record twice in the past seven months. With a club option for an additional year, Caicedo’s contract is for eight years.

Liverpool had a £111 million offer accepted for Caicedo last Thursday, but they were unable to persuade him to move to Anfield. The Ecuadorian international has always preferred to sign with Chelsea, who will pay £100m plus £15m in performance-related bonuses.

Additionally, Brighton has a buy-out clause for a player they acquired on February 1, 2021, for an undisclosed sum that is believed to be £4.5 million from the Ecuadorian club Independiente del Valle.

Chelsea made Caicedo their top target for the defensive midfield position, but Brighton turned down several of their offers. It took weeks for a deal to be reached after a £70 million offer was turned down in the middle of July.

The action carries on Brighton’s tradition of making sizable profits in the transfer market. For instance, this summer they sold Alexis Mac Allister to Liverpool for £35 million after purchasing him for about £7 million, and last summer Chelsea paid £55 million for the £15 million signing of Marc Cucurella.

In an effort to sign Southampton midfielder Roméo Lavia before Liverpool, Chelsea is also attempting to do so. Although Chelsea, who are willing to pay £50 million plus add-ons, have agreed to a £60 million deal, the Belgian international would prefer to sign with them.

When Chelsea called, Caicedo didn’t need to second-guess his decision to sign with the club, saying: “I am so excited to be here at this big club. Being here is a fulfillment of a dream, and I am eager to begin working with the group.
