Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Chelsea wants to sign everything and everybody this season. According to Fabrizio, Chelsea has tabled €40 the Barcelona man F. Lopez in a bid to lure him away from the Catalan club but Barcelona insists that his happy and wouldn't want to leave and they themselves are not interested in selling him anytime soon.

Barcelona and Flick confirmed they hope Fermin to stay. However, they up to the player's decision. At the same time, Fermin is still having desire to stay in Barca much longer. it most likely Chelsea's bid getting rejected due to that reason.

I don’t think this transfer is going to happen, Chelsea are showing interest in the player, and I think Barcelona are not ready to let him go now, because Hamsi Flick still sees him as part of his plans for the season, so I’m seeing a situation where he has to stay put, I feel Chelsea are interested in this transfer because they lost out to Xavi Simons to Tottenham, and Chelsea already made a proposal to Barcelona at the amount of €40million, and that is a bad proposal and Barcelona aren’t going to accept that for one of their talented players, I think if Todd Boehly wants that player he has to go higher than that before Barcelona can even listen to their proposal, so right now I don’t see how possible the transfer could go through considering that Chelsea aren’t ready to go higher than that valuation.

Chelsea's in many competitions this season including the Champions league so anything that would increase the depth and avoid the team from being weak when injuries and fatigue start happening to players, I'm in support of them doing it for the team to be successful this season, even though I'm not quite sure they'll reach the Champions League final but if they can go far in the competition and win a trophy, it would be a successful season for the team.

Lopez is a rising star, he's gained lots of experience under Flick and turning into a future talent, he'll be a good addition to Chelsea but Barcelona is the problem holding this deal from happening, they too need their depth to be strong so I doubt if they'll give one of their finest youngsters to Chelsea especially now that the window is almost over and there's little time to scout a proper replacement.

I believe if Chelsea really wants this player they will be able to get him if not in this summer transfer window maybe next summer they will be able to get him because the interest is concrete as the player really suits Chelsea’s philosophy of rebuilding by recruiting young talents into the team that really matched with their wage structures. Fermin lopes is a player of such qualities and attributes which suits Chelsea’s style, they missed out on the signing of xavi Simon’s to Tottenham, although they never really made any concrete offer to the player and his camp even though the player already made it clear that he wants to join Chelsea. So for Chelsea to make an offer of £40m on fermine lopes it shows they are serious and really wants the player to join and if not this season, then next summer Chelsea will get him.

They know this is likely to be mission impossible, they know too well that Barcelona won't sell him but they decide to try luck but quite unfortunate they run out of that same luck, for the past few seasons Chelsea have sign more than fifty players and and still willing to sign more, I can see it's all a race for the English premier League title but trust me they can't have it with this kind of format, first they should go get Nicolas Jackson first from Bayern Munich because Bayern Munich don't need him, before they think of adding more.
