Report: Chelsea willing to offer multiple players in swap deal for £60m Premier League star

Reports have claimed that Chelsea are now willing to part ways with multiple players in an attempt to get one signing over the line this summer.

It is believed that the club will want to move on a number of first team players this summer in order to facilitate the addition of new ones.

While there is no immediate need to raise funds before June ends, they will want to make some profit that allows them to spend big on a new signing or two.

If reports are to be believed, their current number one target isMichael Olise from Crystal Palace.

While there are a number of sides eager to secure his signature, the Blues took a decent step towards a deal yesterday when it emerged they had met the Premier League club to ask for talks.

It also was said that they were willing to pay the release clause of £60m in order to get the deal done.

Chelsea willing to offer players for Michael Olise

Now, the Mail Online have claimed that the Blues would also be willing to offer a number of fringe players if that is a method Palace would prefer.

Of the players Chelsea are reportedly looking to sell this summer, the likes of Armando Broja and Trevoh Chalobah feel as if they could be on the chopping block as of now.

However, there may be an appetite for Palace to ask for a more like-for-like replacement from Stamford Bridge, something Chelsea can offer in the form of either Noni Madueke or Omari Hutchinson.

The latter is likely to be sold this summer, while the former will be facing a tricky test for minutes if Olise joins despite the fact he enjoyed a very strong end to last season under former manager Mauricio Pochettino.

With how big wingers were during Enzo Maresca’s time at Leicester City, it is clear to see why they are prioritising this deal right now.
