Chelsea told there ‘is an opportunity’ to land striker for summer bargain!
Journalist Fabrizio Romano has opened up and claimed that there is an opportunity for Chelsea to sign Jonathan David from Lille.
Chelsea are almost certainly going to add a striker to that attack at some point this transfer window and have been linked with some of the worlds very best strikers over the past few months.
David is a striker that CHELSEA have reportedly been chasing for the last few seasons and it has been revealed on many occasions that Lille are open to the idea of letting the striker leave for the right kind of money.
Now – amid all the speculation – Romano has opened up and claimed that the likes of Chelsea could land the striker for a summer bargain – Romano told GiveMeSport: “For Jonathan David, there is interest from several clubs in England and in Italy. At the moment, there is still nothing advanced but Jonathan David will be one of the opportunities, because he’s out of contract next summer at Lille, and not extending his contract.
“For sure, many clubs have asked for conditions of the deal, and I think from what I’m told, that something around €20-25million (£16.8m-£21m) could be enough to land the player.
“So there could be an opportunity. At the moment, Chelsea have not presented any proposal from what I’m told, so it’s still early or all quiet around Chelsea and Jonathan David – apart from the interest they can have for the opportunity. For David at the moment, it’s not a proper negotiation.”

CHELSEAneed a goal-scorer that can bang in 25-30 goals a season and David could be that kind of player.
The money that is being talked about is not alot of money – he could be a great bit of business by the Blues if they managed to get a transfer deal done.
