A £50 million player has already discussed joining Chelsea this summer with his representation.
Romeo Lavia has spoken to his reps about a move to Chelsea this summer after Southampton were relegated from the Premier League.
So says Sacha Tavolieri.
What’s the latest on Romeo Lavia and Chelsea? We see…

What’s the story?

Well, according to a number of news outlets, Chelsea are very keen on signing the Belgium international. The Guardian believes that Mauricio Pochettino personally requested Lavia’s signature.

Elsewhere – according to Simon Phillips on Substack – Chelsea are happy to spend a whopping £50m to sign Southampton’s number 45 this summer.

Now – as described by Tavolieri – it seems that Lavia is definitely interested in moving to Stamford Bridge as he has already talked to his entourage about joining the Blues.

Eden Hazard is said to have sent the 19-year-old to Chelsea after seeking advice from his compatriot on a move to west London for the World Cup in December 2022.

Therefore, it seems that Lavia is interested in becoming a Chelsea player, although there are some things that Pochettino and Todd Boehly should be wary of. Chelsea face serious competition for Lavia

While Tavolieri’s assertion about Chelsea and Lavia was encouraging, the Belgian journalist also made some comments about Liverpool and Arsenal that should worry people at Stamford Bridge.

Liverpool are said to have a strong association with Southampton having already signed Dejan Lovren, Adam Lallana, Nathaniel Clyne, Rickie Lambert, Sadio Mane and Virgil van Dijk.

This could give the Reds an advantage over Chelsea.
Speaking of Arsenal, Tavolieri adds that the North Londoners have the best relationship with Lavia’s agent which could also give the Gunners an edge over the Blues.

Make sure to keep an eye on this situation as Lavia is expected to switch clubs this summer.

Mateo Kovacic: Man City and Chelsea reach a £30 million agreement for the Croatia midfielder

Mateo Kovacic joined Chelsea on loan from Real Madrid in 2018 before making his transfer permanent for £40m a year later;

The Croatian midfielder won four major trophies at Stamford Bridge, including the Champions League in 2021; Kovacic has one more year at Chelsea

Manchester City have agreed a £30m deal to sign Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic.

The fee is said to be £25m guaranteed initially, plus £5m in performance-based surcharges. An official announcement that Kovacic will join last season’s treble winners is expected shortly.

Kovacic has been at Stamford Bridge since leaving Real Madrid – initially on loan – in the summer of 2018.

The Croatia international won four major trophies during his time at Chelsea – including his fourth Champions League in 2021 – and went on to make 221 appearances for the club.

The logic of why Chelsea would allow Mateo Kovacic to leave Stamford Bridge – even to one of their Premier League rivals – is easy to see given that he only has one year left on his contract and that at 29 years old, it is believed to have a limited one.

Interested in engaging in the Stamford Bridge reconstruction project in West London.

There will likely be a segment of Chelsea fans who look at Kovacic’s tally of four goals and 13 assists in 142 Premier League games over five years and think it’s a bargain, up to £30m for the midfield.

Interested in engaging in the Stamford Bridge reconstruction project in West London. There will likely be a segment of Chelsea fans who look at Kovacic's tally of four goals and 13 assists in 142 Premier League games over five years and think it's a bargain, up to £30m for the midfield. It's true that Kovacic's influence in the final third was modest at best, while his reluctance to shoot from dangerous positions has always been a curiosity given his superb technical ability. But it's also true that Kovacic was never signed as a prolific attacking midfielder, as a tally of 18 goals in eight years for his previous three clubs should have shown. Instead, the Croatia international's strengths lie in midfield. Since joining the Premier League in the summer of 2018, Kovacic has ranked fifth among midfielders in successful attacks and assists per 90. He excels at receiving the ball under pressure, rising while beating the opposing press, and combining defense and attack - skills often overlooked due to his limited attacking power. But it was those skills that probably endeared him to Manchester City who, after Real Madrid and Inter Milan, added their name to Kovacic's stellar CV, who has already racked up 18 trophies - including four League titles. champions - during his career and the winner is. It's easy to imagine Kovacic fitting perfectly into Pep Guardiola's squad, either as a competitor to Rodri as a pivot - which would be bad news for Kalvin Phillips - or as a potential future replacement. free agent Ilkay Gundogan as number 8. Funding Kovacic before his contract expires makes sense for Chelsea, but when Guardiola wants a player it's usually a sign he's worth it.
