Aba! Na wetin we go talk today? Chelsea wan sign young star Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund, but dem don face serious wahala for negotiation. As of this evening, dem don reject Chelsea bid wey close to £42 million on Deadline Day. Dortmund no dey play, dem wan hold Gittens down tight for about £55 million. E be like say Chelsea no fit shift mat down for that price!
Gittens, wey dey shine bright for Bundesliga, don make am clear sey him no wan stay for Dortmund again. E nor dey hide am! Him wan join Enzo Maresca side for the Club World Cup; after all, who no wan taste palm wine for big party?
As the matter be, Dortmund sporting director, Sebastian Kehl, don cancel him media session wey dey come this afternoon. Na wetin Gittens dey do for training now? Him dey run, but no serious ball work. Na only jog him dey do like say him dey prepare for Olympic marathon.
Meanwhile, Chelsea talk say dem don clear ground for AC Milan goalkeeper, Mike Maignan. Na wa! Dem don gree say dem no fit pay more than £12.7 million for Maignan wey just get one year left for him contract. So, dem don pack that negotiation sharp sharp.
Omo, who fit understand Chelsea matter? Dem get five goalkeepers for bench already: Robert Sanchez, Filip Jorgensen, Djordje Petrovic, Mike Penders, and Kepa Arrizabalaga. You go fit co-sign wetin dem dey try do for that department? Abeg!
For now, Chelsea dey try hold on to Gittens, but dem don dey lose grip. And Manchester City don snatch goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli from their farm. Talk about transfer grass cutting! Dem don sign him for one year deal because him contract go expire next summer.
The season dey heat up, and we dey watch as Chelsea try find solution. Gittens dey make dem razz, but e fit be say tomorrow we go hear different gist if Dortmund gree for pay.
