Chelsea ‘confident’ £102M star will get signed – fans told
Chelsea and Juventus are currently in discussions on a potential Matthijs De Ligt transfer.
Tuchel will need to sign several top-tier players over the coming few months due to the fact that a handful of players have already left the club and that a few more are anticipated to do so should the right offer come in.
And again, as a result of finding that De Ligt is unable to reach a new contract agreement with Juventus, numerous media reports have speculated that the club is preparing to make a move for De Ligt.
And according to recent rumours, the dominant defender has submitted a transfer request in an effort to expedite a prospective deal to Stamford Bridge.
De Ligt reportedly wanted to go because Juventus hasn’t been successful since his arrival.
Currently, according to Foot Mercato, Matthijs De Ligt’s potential transfer to Juventus is being discussed by the teams’ representatives.
Despite the fact that the Italian giants want close to £100 million for the defender, the article claims that talks are progressing well and Chelsea are optimistic that a deal can be reached.
De Ligt needs to be recruited for a little bit less money because £102 million is a lot of money to pay for the player and half of the transfer budget that Tuchel supposedly has to work with.
