Romano: Chelsea ‘are in talks’ to sign Ben Chilwell, player wants the move

Fabrizio Romano has spoken, and when that happens, football fans tend to listen.

The reliable transfer news reporter has confirmed reports from the last week that Chelsea are looking to sign Leicester City left back Ben Chilwell.

In fact, he has gone one further to say that the two clubs are now in talks over the signing, and that Chilwell himself wants the move.

The England international is aware that Frank Lampard wants to bring him to Stamford Bridge, and all will be on whether the two clubs can agree a fee.

Ajax left back Nicolas Tagliafico is Chelsea’s backup plan should they not be able to agree a fee for Chilwell with Leicester.

As you can see, he also provides a nice little update on Chelsea’s Timo Werner move – saying it is almost done, just the paperwork to complete.

Roman Abramovich looks to be back big time, and he is fully backing Frank Lampard. You do love to see it!
