Chelsea have identify Burnley Maxwel Cornet as a possible alternative to Leeds United's Raphinha
The Blues are understood to have concurred a £60m charge with Leeds for the transfer of Raphinha, seemingly fighting off interest from Barcelona and Arsenal in the process.
In any case, Raphinha has not yet concurred personal terms with Thomas Tuchel's side and has supposedly ventured to advise his representative Deco to obstruct a transition to Stamford Bridge.The 25-year-old is understood to long for a transition to Camp Nou to satisfy a youth 'dream', and as a result he has no expectation of joining Chelsea this summer.
As a result, the Blues could be forced to seek out elective options, and as per talkSPORT, Burnley's Cornet has arisen as a possible objective for the club.Cornet impressed during his first season at Turf Moor with nine goals and an assist in 26 Premier League appearances, however his efforts were sufficiently not to forestall Burnley's transfer down to the Championship.
The former Lyon man wrote a five-year bargain at the club following his £13.5m transfer, however he is not supposed to stay on the books at Turf Moor following their demotion.Burnley's transfer to the second level supposedly means that Cornet can pass on the club for a £17.5m because of a clause in his agreement, and Chelsea could be prepared to make use.
The 26-year-old demonstrated his versatility by playing as a left-back or left-midfielder during the 2021-22 season, and Tuchel is said to be drawn to Cornet's qualities.Chelsea were forced to manage without the harmed Ben Chilwell for most of last season, despite the fact that Marcos Alonso has reignited his Blues profession under Tuchel.
In any case, the Spaniard is out of agreement in 2023 and has affirmed his desire to play in La Liga in the midst of links with Barcelona, who are currently said to be certain of striking a deal.Cornet could therefore go about as rivalry and reinforcement to Chilwell on the left-hand side, as Raheem Sterling arrives to bolster Tuchel's assault from Manchester City.
Chelsea are supposedly becoming increasingly sure of sealing a £45m move for Sterling, who is poised to sign a four-year contract at Stamford Bridge.Sterling's appearance could open the entryway for Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner and Christian Pulisic to leave, with the former presently said to be in cutting edge talks with AC Milan.
