ChelseaThe attackers were probably a little so far insidious in the Premier League This season. The exception is Cole Palmer, who once again stood out with 14 goals and six assists in the top flight.
He was well supported by a few blues striker. Nicolas Jackson played well, with nine goals and five assists, and Noni Madueka has ten goals, with both players the only other Chelsea attackers who scored more than five goals.
However, several players are weaker, including Joao Felix and Pedro Net, who only succeeded in the Premier League. So, it may not be a surprise that the blues aimed at a late move for Striker in Brighton and Hoveu Albion Evan Ferguson.
Why Chelsea wants Ferguson
Report on Friday He confirmed that the Blues had joined the race to sign Ferguson before the deadline on Monday. At this stage, it is not clear whether or not to do a loan contract or make a permanent move for an Irishman. However, the seagulls appreciated it at £ 40m.
It was a really difficult season of 2024/25. For a 20-year-old. He has Played 15 times In all competitions, but he only found the back of the net once. That strike came home in drawing 2-2 against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
However, he showed a great promise at the level of the first team for the south coast clothing. The attacker reached 17 times and grabbed five assists In 80 games For the club, although he only played 3542 minutes at the time.
So, having that in mind, the blues would surely add someone who has a natural eye for a goal. Although he has been fighting this season, it is important to remember that Ferguson was only 20 years old and he was years old to undergo his development as a professional.
It remains to be seen whether the blues will sign Ferguson, but for £ 40m they could certainly do worse. In fact, one of their current players is worth a lot more than an attacker who can’t go aside this season Enzo Maresca.
A player worth more than Ferguson
Chelsea star is worth more than Brighton ahead Christopher nkinka. Things really failed for a French attacker on Stamford Bridge from his £ 52 million move from RB Leipzig 2023.
His record, on the face of things, is not too bad. The former PSG star has Played 43 times In that famous blue shirt, reaching 16 times and registering four assists.
However, seven of these goals have arrived in the conference league, including two goals and an assist in a 8-0 victory over FC Noah this season.
Nkinka disappointed in the 2024/25 Premier League, with five goals and one assists In 30 appearances. In addition, he competes against Palmer and Jackson because of the place on the side, which is far from the light with respect to their form.

Frenchman, once described as “funny” from the statman of Dave During his stay in Leipzig, he was associated with moved to Germany earlier in the transfer window. Agreed on personal terms with Bayern Munich, How did Florian Plettenberg report January 18th.
Espn reported In order for Blues to want at least £ 50 million for Nkunk if he left, and there are certainly positive for his departure. Not only does he have a better effect, given that he can play regular football elsewhere, but that means that Chelsea can also invest money in a contract for Ferguson, which is better appropriate to their team.
For all parties it seems worth the nkunk by leaving Stamford Bridge. It is worth £ 10m more than Brighton’s requested prices for Ireland striker, and it certainly uses Blues, since they can add a more appropriate profile to my composition.
