Chelsea have been on a spending spree in recent weeks and the Blues are still looking to bring in quality players even after confirming the signing of Timo Werner, Chelsea are now reportedly ready to make a move for highly rated Bayern Munich defender David Alaba.
The 27-year old David Alaba is regarded as one of the world’s best defenders and the Austrian is prominently a left-back but can also feature as a central defender.
David Alaba has been identified by Frank Lampard as a possible signing to bolster his defence after Chelsea are frustrated by the price tag for Ben Chilwell.
Bayern Munich have been reported to be ready to sell the defender as David Alaba has spent well over 10-years at the German club.
Also, Alaba has just one year left on his contract and Bayern are ready to cash in on the defender rather than lose him on a free transfer.
Chelsea will have to spend in the region of £47m to sign the defender who will bring in massive quality and experience to the Blues. The signing of David Alaba will bring an end to Chelsea’s issues at the left back position as he will be a huge asset in defence and attack.
David Alaba can also be a utility player for Chelsea as he can perform in Central defence and also in midfield. Chelsea are rebuilding their squad and the addition of a player like Alaba to the squad will be a massive statement for Chelsea. Also, Chelsea fans will likely prefer a move for Alaba over other targets.
