LONDON, England — Chelsea dey face serious challenge to sign two promising young players, Liam Delap and Dean Huijsen, as their transfer plans hit a hard wall following a recent defeat against Newcastle United. Delap, wey don score 12 goals for Ipswich Town dis season, and Huijsen, wey dey shine bright for his team, get eye from all over the Premier League.
With release clauses of £50 million for Delap and around £30 million for Huijsen, Chelsea fit move quickly to snag dem, especially wit the Club World Cup coming up. But optimism don fade as Chelsea lose against Newcastle after three wins in a row, leaving dem in a delicate state.

Delap wey just start im career for the Championship no go wan leave Ipswich in the middle of relegation fight. Im respect for di club wey buy am for £20 million last year no go make am rush leave.
“Di way wey dem believe in me, I no fit just jump ship like that,” Delap talk. Chelsea strong for scouting with former Manchester City scout Joe Shields onboard. Dis go help dem build solid connections wit players from City.
As for Huijsen, Chelsea dey eye other center-backs too like Marc Guehi and Ousmane Diomande. Di pressure is on because fans go remember how Chelsea don miss better players like Bradley Barcola and Desire Doue before.
“We no wan see dem make mistake again,” one Chelsea supporter sated. Fans dey call for quick action as they no wan see two targets slip away while Chelsea sit back.
Jakob Sesko, another potential target, dey keen to leave RB Leipzig following di frustrations of dis season. “We no fit afford to make mistake again dis summer,” a Chelsea representative said. Chelsea needs fresh faces to add depth to di squad going forward.
With Jackson serving suspension and in need of support, fans dey anxious as di search goes on for di next set of strikers. If Chelsea no fit deliver, e go show say di management try but fail to follow through on plans.
