Borussia Dortmund have identified Hertha winger Javairo Dilrosun and Valencia’s Ferran Torres as potential replacements for Chelsea target Jadon Sancho.
Now we all know that Chelsea were unable to go out and splash the cash on some big named players as they were banned from acquiring any players for at least two transfer windows, and although they did appeal the ban, they only managed to tie down a permanent deal for Mateo Kovacic and bring in Christian Pulisic.
News boss Frank Lampard has a massive job on his hands trying to get the best out of the experienced players, while also giving the younger generation more of a chance at Stamford Bridge, as he could not improve the squad.
But with the sales of a number of first-team players, THE BLUES made a massive £130 million in sales this summer and that is to be reinvested into the club in the next could of windows, as Lampard will reportedly get around £200 million to spend on new players.
And Sancho has been on the shopping list for some time now, according to reports, as the young man has become a very creative player in the Bundesliga.
The 19-year-old England international, who left Manchester City to join the Bundesliga outfit in 2017, emerged as a top summer target for Chelsea, but Dortmund refused to sell and Chelsea were unable to make a firm offer as they were suspended from doing any deals.
But German outlet BILD have handed the likes of Chelsea a massive boost in the chase to try and sign up the young Englishman at the end of the season, as Dortmund have identified Hertha winger Javairo Dilrosun and Valencia’s Ferran Torres as possible replacements for the creative force.
The outlet also reports that Sancho is expected to leave Dortmund next summer and the German club will use the £130m fee Barcelona paid for Ousmane Dembele as a benchmark figure for the England international.
The lad is a creative force and was one of the top assist players in Europe last season, and considering Chelsea are seeking an immediate ready-made replacement for Eden Hazard, could Sancho be the answer to their problems?
It will just be a matter of if boss Lampard is willing to spend so much money on the exciting young man when his already talented attack is starting to click and put in some stunning performances, will he be needed?
