‘Are we Everton?, God forbid’ – Chelsea fans reacts as Blues consider shock move for 25-years-old Alonso replacement

Maxwel Cornet, a winger for Burnley, is reportedly a target for Chelsea, according to reports in the English media.

After the Clarets were demoted to the Championship, the Ivorian is eager to leave Turf Moor, and he has a clause in his contract that allows him to go for £17.5 million this summer.

While Cornet played fairly well for Burnley last season, scoring nine goals in 26 league games, most Twitter users don’t believe he has the skills to play for Chelsea:

It should be noted that manager Thomas Tuchel may not necessarily be looking to sign Cornet in order to bolster his offensive options.

The 25-year-old can play in more than one position thanks to his experience as a wingback, and having him in the team would be advantageous.

Having someone like Cornet to compete with Ben Chilwell might not be a terrible idea as Marcos Alonso and Emerson Palmieri could both depart Stamford Bridge.
