Chelsea can’t stop! And obviously, the Blues love to recruit French. After enlisting Benoît Badiashile, Axel Disasi, Wesley Fofana, Malo Gusto, Malang Sarr, Lesley Ugochukwu and Christopher Nkunku, the London club is on track to recruit Michael Olise (21, under contract until 2026).
The Crystal Palace attacking midfielder had been a target for the Blues for many weeks, but everything accelerated. RMC Sports announces that an agreement in principle has been reached with the Eagles for the transfer of the Frenchman in exchange for an amount slightly less than 40 M€. Arrived at Crystal Palace in 2021, Olise is 6 goals and 19 assists in 71 matches, all competitions combined.
