Chelsea would have examined three main transfer objectives to strengthen in central defense this summer.
The blues could do with an upgrade on Levi Colwill, Trevoh Chalobah and the Wesley Fofana subject to injuries if they want to make significant progress next season.
And it seems that some big names are in the views of Chelsea, with the defender of Crystal Palace Marc Guehi, Jarrad Branthwaite of Everton and Ajax Wonderkid Jorrel Hato linked by Sky Sports.
This is not the first time that we have heard of Guehi at Chelsea Links, with Liverpool who would also be one of the main admirers of England, according to a recent TBR Football report.
Chelsea to bring Marc Guehi to Stamford Bridge?
Guehi was in Chelsea’s books as a youngster, but at that time, he had to leave for more football in the first team.
It is fair to say that it ended up being an intelligent decision by Guehi, who showed what he is capable of with his solid performances during his stay in Selhurst Park.
The 24 -year -old has shown that he was now surely ready to start playing at the highest level, having become a crucial player for Palace and also won 23 caps in England.
Guehi would surely be an automatic starter at Stamford Bridge now, and he would probably do a good job in Liverpool as a long -term successor to aging Virgil van Dijk.
Who else could sign Chelsea in defense this summer?
CFC also has other options on their list, according to this Chelsea News update from Sky Sports, with Branthwaite and Hato resembling two other names that would do a good job for the side of Enzo Maresca.
It is difficult to imagine a talent as a Branthwaite staying in a club in difficulty like Everton longer, so that could be one to look at.
Hato, meanwhile, looks like a player with a great future, and Ajax often tends to enjoy players like this once the big clubs across Europe are starting to notice them.
