Chelsea have made a whopping £102m offer to sign Federico Valverde from Real Madrid

According to Spanish agency Defensa Central (h/t Evening Standard), Chelsea have made a whopping £102million offer to sign midfielder Federico Valverde from Real Madrid and Uruguay during the summer transfer window.
The 24-year-old is a central figure in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.

Therefore, although the report looks encouraging, it could be difficult to sign the one-game away player from Chelsea this summer. But funnier things have happened in transfer windows in the past.

Speaking of players: his contract with the 14-time European champion runs until the summer of 2027 (Transfermarkt).

He’s an action-packed midfielder who, like him in the 2022 Champions League final, can successfully act as a winger. He has good pace, can pass the ball very well like most Madridistas, has a good shot and works hard on the ball.

He has good technique and seems to follow the coach’s instructions better than most players.

While, as mentioned above, it’s hard to believe that Valverde would want to leave Los Blancos regardless of Chelsea’s offer, Mauricio Pochettino can do just that.

Change his mind? We hope.
To be honest, the Blues could use a midfielder like him who can lead the game on the opposition and impose his personality on them every time.

After missing out on Manuel Ugarte to Paris-Saint Germain, the club are looking to sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton. Arsenal are also in the running.

Chelsea also need to sign a striker. You are in competition

with Madrid for Lautaro Martinez. Expecting too much progress from Valverde might be a bit too ambitious.

So let’s be realistic and make the deals that are actually possible. If something crazy happens, there is a chance of falling.

Pep Guardiola authorizes Chelsea to finalize a £52 million summer move by giving Mauricio Pochettino the go-ahead.

Chelsea transfer news: Pep Guardiola, the manager of Manchester City, gave Mauricio Pochettino a subtly worded piece of summertime advice.

Before his Manchester City team takes on the Italian giants in the Champions League final, Pep Guardiola has chosen Andre Onana, who Chelsea are interested in signing, as Inter’s top player. The Cameroonian international is essential to Inter’s tactical system, and it appears that Guardiola has given Mauricio Pochettino the go-ahead to sign him for the Blues.

Football’s goals for the summer transfer window include acquiring a new goalkeeper. London is aware that Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy’s futures at Stamford Bridge are uncertain.

In between the sticks, Onana seems to be the main target, but Inter doesn’t seem to want to sell, especially in light of the CEO Giuseppe Marotta’s May comments.

In all honesty, I’d rule out Onana leaving for €40 million (£35 million).
“I believe he’ll stay.
Onana is content in Milano and wants to stay there; we have no plans to sell him as we have not received any offers. ”.

The Blues are said to have started talking to Inter for Onana despite the Serie A team’s adamant stance. According to Matt Law of the Daily Telegraph, another meeting between the two parties has already been scheduled because Inter has increased their asking price.

“At the moment, Inter Milan is asking for €60 million (£52 million) for Andre Onana,” he stated. After the Champions League championship, Chelsea and Inter Milan will meet to discuss Lukaku primarily. Onana, however, will be covered in that. “.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Chelsea appears to have already conducted a transfer experiment by sending a €40 million (£35 million) check. According to their report, the bid was swiftly turned down, but negotiations to reach a settlement will go on in the ensuing weeks.

Pochettino could move on to other goalkeeper targets after their initial offer was rejected, but after hearing Guardiola’s admission about Onana, the Argentine has good reason to want the Brazilian at Stamford Bridge. When asked who was the most dangerous player for Inter, he responded, “For the high press they use in their game. Onana is a superb goalkeeper to take that position to build-up. Absolutely fantastic. “.
