According to journalist Simon Phillips, Chelsea is interested in signing winger Jarrod Bowen from West Ham United this summer to bolster their attack.
Phillips, a reliable source, reported on his Substack that Chelsea aims to offload at least two current players to accommodate four new wingers, with Bowen being one of the potential targets. However, a deal seems unlikely given Bowen’s recent contract extension lasting until 2030.
Despite the high costs involved, Chelsea has a history of signing Premier League talents in previous transfer windows, including Marc Cucurella, Robert Sanchez, and Moises Caicedo from Brighton & Hove Albion last summer.
Impressive Form by West Ham Star
With 15 goals in 31 Premier League appearances this season, Bowen has been a key player for West Ham.

West Ham made a smart move by securing Bowen with a long-term contract earlier in the season, as he has proven to be a valuable asset with his ability to play on the right wing and pose a goal-scoring threat. His potential arrival may see Cole Palmer shifting to the No. 10 position to receive more involvement in the game.
Premium Price Tag for Bowen
While Bowen would offer versatility to Chelsea, acquiring him would likely come at a steep price. Chelsea may need to make a significant offer to convince West Ham to part ways with their star player, potentially making Bowen the most expensive player in West Ham’s history.
Bowen has consistently performed well over multiple seasons, garnering interest from clubs like Liverpool in the past. He is expected to be part of the England squad for Euro 2024 under manager Gareth Southgate this summer.
