Chelsea Could Sell Two Outcasts To Fund Move For Top Liverpool Target

Written By Albert Echatah

Three and a half years after letting the centre-back join Crystal Palace, Chelsea is interested in bringing Marc Guehi back to the team. However, in order to pay for the acquisition, the Blues could need to sell two of its best players.

More Details

Although Guehi came through Chelsea’s academy, he only made two appearances for the first team before leaving through the Stamford Bridge exit.

The 24-year-old was a vital member of England’s squad at Euro 2024 last summer and has since emerged as one of the Premier League’s top defenders.

The Athletic claims that a £40 million offer may be sufficient to start transfer negotiations between Chelsea and Palace.

When Newcastle called last summer, the Eagles reportedly wanted £70 million for the 24-year-old, and Guehi ultimately lost out on a move to St. James’ Park.

He would probably seize the chance to return to his boyhood team and prove to Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca that he is capable of performing on the biggest platform. Since Todd Boehly purchased the team from Roman Abramovich in May 2023, Chelsea has made significant financial investments.

However, they will face pressure to raise money to finance their transfer efforts in order to make sure they are following sustainability and profit guidelines.

Ben Chilwell and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, two players who have been denied playing time under Maresca, are two that they could let go. Chilwell, who has only played 45 minutes of football all season, seems to be surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge.

Since following Maresca from Leicester to Chelsea in a £30 million trade last summer, Dewsbury-Hall, on the other hand, has struggled. Due to an injury, he was unable to play in the encounter against Morecambe and is yet to start a Premier League game for the west London powerhouses.
