Chelsea have just made a bid to sign Antonio Nusa from Club Brugge on Transfer Deadline Day.

That is according to Nieuwsblad in Belgium.

So, what is the situation involving Antonio Nusa and Chelsea? Let’s take a look…

What’s the story?

Well, this story has emerged from absolutely nowhere.

Just as Chelsea seemed to be done in the market after completing the £42.5m signing of Cole Palmer, an offer has now been made for Nusa.

Nieuwsblad believe Chelsea have bid €30m (£26m) for the 18-year-old.

The Belgian news outlet add that Chelsea plan to send Nusa back to Club Brugge on loan so he can continue his development, and simply want to beat the chasing pack to his signature now.

In nine appearances so far this season, the Norwegian wonderkid has scored one goal while also providing two assists.

Who is Chelsea target Antonio Nusa?

Now, we know that some Chelsea fans are getting tired of Todd Boehly signing young talents for the future – who aren’t coming straight into the senior squad – but Nusa is a truly elite prospect worth snapping up immediately.

The teenager became the youngest ever player to score on his Champions League debut when he netted for Club Brugge in a 4-0 win over Porto last season, at the age of just 17 years and 189 days.

Nusa has also been nicknamed the Norwegian Neymar as a result of his immense skills out on the wing.

Be sure to keep an eye on this situation, as Chelsea await a response after sending the £26m bid.
