London, England – E don happen, Chelsea don agree £30 million deal to bring Liam Delap from Ipswich. Dis guy sabi wetin e dey do, him score 12 goals last season for Ipswich after dem buy am from Manchester City. Now the Blues wan make am no just rest for this move but also dey eye other players wey fit add to their firepower.
As dem dey get ready for Club World Cup, e dey look like Enzo Maresca dey plan to sign second striker. Na true, dem dey explore the market well-well. One player wey dey their sight na Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt, and dem fit even talk to him agent soon. Ekitike don shine for Frankfurt, him don score 22 goals last season and dey attract attention from everywhere, even from Manchester United and Liverpool.
But make I yarn the koko, Frankfurt no go gree am go for free – dem dey ask for serious cash, wetin we fit call *gala money* of about £84 million. E dey so because Ekitike get four years left for him contract, and everybody dey eye am like hot cake (I mean, na real hot cake wey dey pull crowd).
As Chelsea dey plan for this summer, dem dey feel say dem also sabi that one left winger dey available. Jamie Bynoe-Gittens from Borussia Dortmund dey on their list, but no be only am dey matter. Dem also check out Nico Williams from Athletic Club, wetin mean say options plenty o!
Maresca wey don manage dem to fourth position for Premier League last season, dey ginger for next season. Him don win UEFA Conference League, so e know say na time to show say Chelsea no dey play. With Joao Felix and Christopher Nkunku wan pack their bags, e clear say dem need fresh blood.
As dem dey talk about players wey go fit join, people dey ask wetin go happen with Nicolas Jackson too. Him dey important, but competition go dey hot as Delap don land. All dis drama dey happen because Chelsea wan build something strong, after all dem need to maintain dem new Champions League status.
Wetin go happen next? Shall Ekitike make the move or dem go face another season of search? Maybe Delap go fit choose to play for English U21 team go World Cup, but wetin dem go do now na to make sure say he dey with his new padi dem for America. If Chelsea fit manage am to stay away from U21 and jump straight to Club World Cup, no wahala!
Dem don set to do some serious business and this summer go be fun watch for Chelsea fans. No forget to follow their WhatsApp channel to keep up with all the lowdown, make you no miss any gist.
