Chelsea have been touted as one of the teams looking to be right on the case of Haaland and up there trying to sign him, and according to Dean Jones of Eurosport this morning, they will battle Manchester City for his signature.

I personally still don’t see this as a transfer that will happen this summer, as Jones reports, some of the player’s closest allies have reservations about him moving to the Premier League just yet, and we know that Dortmund will not be keen to sell.

His release clause kicks in the summer after, so that will make the pursuit a lot more feasible. But Chelsea will be in the mix regardless!
