Bayern Munich Compete with Chelsea for Gittens
Chelsea are reportedly in negotiations to sign Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani, according to a report from L’Équipe. The French striker, who recently impressed during a loan spell at Juventus, has emerged as a potential summer target for the Blues.
Kolo Muani played a pivotal role in Juventus’ Club World Cup campaign, scoring a decisive brace against Al-Ain. The Italian side are said to be keen on securing his services permanently, but Chelsea’s entry into the race could complicate their plans.
The 26-year-old’s future at PSG remains uncertain, and with Nicolas Jackson struggling for form, Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca may be exploring options to bolster the frontline. However, any move for Kolo Muani could be financially challenging given his rising stock following recent performances.
Bayern Munich Compete with Chelsea for Gittens
Meanwhile, Chelsea face increasing pressure in their pursuit of Borussia Dortmund winger Jamie Gittens. According to Fichajes, Bayern Munich have now entered the fray after missing out on Nico Williams, who is set to join Barcelona.
Chelsea had reportedly made an approach for Gittens prior to the Club World Cup, and the England youth international is believed to have verbally agreed to a move to west London. However, Bayern’s interest adds a new layer of competition, potentially complicating Chelsea’s transfer plans.
Gittens has been identified as a key target to strengthen wide areas, and missing out on him could disrupt Maresca’s blueprint for the new season.
As the transfer window continues to heat up, Chelsea’s activity will be closely watched, especially with multiple top European clubs circling their priority targets.
