Chelsea prepare shock €180m for Real Madrid duo in summer
Chelsea are preparing a €180 million bid to sign Real Madrid duo Rodrygo and Endrick, according to a sensational report in Spain.
The Blues are actively pursuing attacking reinforcements ahead of the 2025 summer transfer window as they look to significantly bolster the options available to Enzo Maresca, and several stars have been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea have identified Ipswich Town’s Liam Delap as their priority centre forward target, while they are expected to sign a right-footed winger amid Mykhailo Mudryk’s extended absence due to a doping suspension.
Athletic Club superstar Nico Williams and Borussia Dortmund wonderkid Jamie Gittens have both been tipped to join the west London giants in recent months, although Chelsea have now set their sights on completing a deal for Rodrygo.
That is according to Fichajes, who claim that Maresca’s side are prepared to submit a €100m offer for the Brazil international this summer.
Furthermore, the Spanish publication have also reported that Chelsea are set to lodge an €80m bid for Endrick as they look to bring a new striker to the club in 2025.
However, Fichajes have stated that Real Madrid have no intention of allowing Rodrygo or Endrick to depart this summer, despite the fact that Chelsea are reportedly “determined to do everything possible” to sign the Brazilian duo.
Rodrygo has established himself as an integral member of Carlo Ancelotti’s starting XI over the past 18 months, scoring 13 goals in 41 appearances so far this campaign, while Endrick is seen as a future superstar by the Real Madrid hierarchy.
