97-goal star reveals IF he will make move to Chelsea in January
Lille striker Jonathan David has hinted he will not leave the French club in January, with the likes of CHELSEA one of the many clubs that are reportedly interested in signing the striker in the next couple of transfer windows.
David has earned a reputation as one of the finest strikers in Europe’s top five leagues. The 24-year-old has scored 97 goals in 202 appearances for the Ligue 1 giants. His displays alone have caught the attention of some of the biggest teams in the game.
He has scored 13 goals in 18 games for Lille this season and with Chelsea seemingly still interested in adding a new striker to that attack, there has been talk that the Blues are ready to open up negotiations with the striker and come to some sort of pre-agreement deal that sees him get signed at the end of the season.
But any teams that had hope of signing David in the January window have now been shot down, as the Canadian star has hinted that he will not leave Lille in the middle of the season: “Going to a club mid-season is never easy,” David told The Athletic.
“It’s not like the beginning of a season where you have a pre-season, you get to know your teammates, you have time to gel.
“In January, things are very hectic. It’s about right now. It’s tougher.”

David has been linked with a whole host of big clubs for the last few seasons, there is alot of interest in the player, so it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
CHELSEA are one of the clubs that are interested, it seems that the board are keen to sign David on a free, but as we said, he will have plenty of options in the coming windows and needs to make the right career choice.
But we would not be surprised to see him snub a move to the Premier League that is for sure.
