Chelsea Transfer News: Blues identify Samu Omorodion as main target up front
Chelsea have set their sights on Samu Omorodion as their primary target for the striker position, choosing him over Alexander Isak, Jonathan David, and Jhon Duran. With Nicolas Jackson’s inconsistent form last season, Omorodion could make a significant impact at Stamford Bridge.
According to The Athletic, Chelsea enquired about Isak earlier in the summer, but interest in David and Duran has waned. The focus is now on pursuing Omorodion, even though Atletico Madrid may not be eager to part ways with the 20-year-old Spanish talent.
Omorodion Transfer: Chelsea eye new signing up front and could sell three strikers
Aside from their pursuit of Omorodion, Chelsea is also set to offload some strikers this summer. Romelu Lukaku and Armando Broja are expected to leave Stamford Bridge, highlighting the need for squad revamp.
David Datro Fofana may also face an exit despite limited playing time, raising questions about the club’s long-term vision. Chelsea fans, however, may view this decisiveness positively as they seek improvement after a lackluster season under Mauricio Pochettino.
