Chelsea are eyeing a shock move for ‘Algerian Messi’ Said Benrahma, ahead of the summer transfer window. Now the transfer window is just a few weeks away and even though there will be no football until at least June 1st, there has still be alot of transfer speculation in the media suggesting that Chelsea are lining up a number of possible targets.
Frank Lampard does not need to spend alot of money to improve his current side, but he does need to add another defender, midfielder and striker to the side in order to turn this Chelsea side from top four contenders to Premier League challengers.
There has been some big names linked with a transfer move to the Bridge and many Chelsea fans are getting excited about the possible arrivals that could make a move to the Premier League.
However, Reports in France Via the SUN, suggest that the Blues have made the Brentford winger their top transfer target this summer, as Frank Lampard will want to bring in some new wingers with Willian and Pedro’s contracts said to expire in the summer.
And the reports suggest that Chelsea have opened talks with the wingers club about a £31million deal for Benrahma’s signature, with the winger impressing this season with ten goals and 14 assists for Brentford in the Championship this term.
There are so many players linked with Chelsea that it is very easy to forget who could come into the side, but this rumour will shock many fans.
Chelsea fans are expecting big names, world-class players and stars that will send a statement of intent, and even though Benrahma has been impressing down in the Championship, is he really ready to make an impact on this Chelsea side. For depth in the squad yes, but wow this is a risk that may not work out for Lampard.
