Blues plotting move for Leicester City defender valued at €40m
According to reports, Chelsea under Thomas Tuchel is among the top European teams interested in Leicester City player Caglar Soyuncu.
Even though the club has a contract with the Blues’ center-back, Antonio Rüdiger, AS reports that Real Madrid is considering the center-half as a potential addition.
In accordance with the orders of chairman Emilio Butragueno, the Galacticos enquired as to the terms of signing the 25-year-old. According to the report, the Blues are also considering signing the Foxes player.
According to reports, Juventus, Manchester City, and the Londoners are all interested in signing him this summer. It is reported that he is worth €40 million, and his contract with the King Power Stadium organization expires in 2023.
Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are also interested in the Turkish international, in addition to the Blues, the Citizens, Los Blancos, and I Bianconeri AS.
When Caglar served as Altnordu from 2014 to 2016, the La Liga team tried to sign him.
Mustafa Dogru, a former member of his entourage, has now supported his decision to leave his present club and sign with Chelsea or Barcelona during the summer transfer window.
“It is possible that Caglar can go to play for Barcelona this summer. Barca already wanted to sign him when he played for Altinordu. We have negotiated with them, and they had presented a project,” he told AS.
“But we thought that he should go to a team where he is a permanent starter, for him to develop properly. For this reason, we decided to accept the Freiburg proposal.
“I think clubs such as Liverpool, City or Chelsea have the power to sign Caglar Soyuncu in the Premier League due to their economic conditions, but we must not forget French teams. PSG could be a surprise.”
