Transfer gossip: Chelsea linked with Traore
Some of the latest transfer speculation involving Chelsea…
Thomas Tuchel is keen on Wolves wide-man Adama Traore, it is claimed.
Spanish newspaper AS claim Chelsea boss Tuchel has told the club’s board he would like Traore in his squad.
The Spain international, who is currently at Euro 2020, has been linked with top Premier League clubs many times in recent seasons.
Isak also linked
AS have also linked Chelsea with Alexander Isak.
The youngster scored 17 league goals for Real Sociedad last season and has also caught the eye for Sweden at the European Championship.
He has inevitably therefore been linked with a move – and it is claimed that Chelsea and Arsenal are both interested in him.
Tuchel wants to keep Werner – Sun
Tuchel does not want Chelsea to sell Timo Werner, The Sun on Sunday reports.
It comes after Werner, who endured a difficult first season at Stamford Bridge, was linked with a potential move to Real Madrid.
Former Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti recently left Everton in order to return for a second spell at Real.
Reports have claimed he is keen to bring in Werner during this summer’s transfer window.
But The Sun on Sunday now reports that Ancelotti is targeting Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin and that Tuchel wants Werner to stay.
Hakimi still being touted for move
Inter Milan wing-back Achraf Hakimi continues to be touted for a move to Chelsea.
The Blues have been linked with Hakimi during successive transfer windows and are again being tipped to move for him.
The Sunday Express declare that Chelsea are pursuing a deal to sign Hakimi despite reports linking him with Paris St-Germain.
Gazzetta dello Sport have claimed that Chelsea are willing to offload Ruben Loftus-Cheek to Inter Milan as part of a deal.
Another Italian publication, II Corriere dello Sport, has claimed the Blues have offered around £43m plus Emerson Palmieri for Hakimi.
