Chelsea are now getting ready to submit an opening bid for Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise.
That is according to a report from Last Word on Football.
They claim that Chelsea are currently preparing an offer for Michael Olise, 21, whom they want to bring to Stamford Bridge in this summer’s transfer window.
It is understood that Mauricio Pochettino’s Blues side are trying to jump to the front of the queue for the left-footed attacker.
The report adds that Chelsea’s bid could arrive in the coming days.
Olise certainly fits the profile of what Chelsea have been targeting in the past couple of transfer windows.
The French youngster is a really exciting winger with massive potential and quality, something he’s already showing in the Premier League with Palace.
Described as “really important” by Patrick Vieira back in February (Palace’s official website), Olise is growing into a talisman at Selhurst Park with the ability to torment Premier League full-backs.
The right-winger’s pace and trickery is a nightmare for defences.
Journalist Fabrizio Romano recently reported on GiveMeSport that Chelsea do like Olise and some people within the club rate him as one of the best talents in the Premier League.
So, will we see him at the latest rising star to join Pochettino’s very young group.
If he signs, he’ll be welcomed into a young squad that consists of a lot of French players.
