Chelsea continue to look at a Brazilian player as a potential transfer target this summer.
It’s been claimed that the Blues have a current Brazil international in their sights.
There’s been so many talented South American stars to play at Stamford Bridge over the years, especially ones from Brazil.
Could Chelsea be about to add another one?
Chelsea are looking at Gleison Bremer
There’s now been fresh claims regarding Chelsea’s interest in signing Juventus defender Gleison Bremer.
First of all, TuttoJuve claimed in May that Chelsea and Manchester United share and interest in Bremer.
It’s now been said on Saturday (today) that the Blues still have the 27-year-old Brazilian in their sights.
Journalist Mirko Di Natale has reported via X that Chelsea and Man United are still eyeing Juventus man Bremer.
In addition, Liverpool and Bayern Munich have interest.
Apparently, Juventus haven’t put the central defender up for sale. It would take bids worth at least €70m (£60m) to make the Serie A club think about the player’s future.
Bremer was a key player last season in Turin for Juventus, playing 40 games across all competitions.
Described as “exceptional” by Sergio Brio, Bremer is a highly-rated centre-half now entering the prime years of his career.
Chelsea’s options at CB
While we do rate Bremer as a top-quality defender on the rise, it wouldn’t make too much sense to splash the cash for him this summer.
As it stands, Chelsea do actually have several decent options at centre-back for new head coach Enzo Maresca to pick from.
Thiago Silva has left the building and leaves an obvious void. There’s still a lot of defenders to select from, though.
Wesley Fofana, Levi Colwill, Tosin Adarabioyo, Axel Disasi and Benoit Badiashile are some of the options at Chelsea to form the central partnership at the back.
