CHELSEA have been informed they could be committing an exorbitant error this Summer
Shaka Hislop has cautioned Chelsea that they could be making a "pricey bet" in the event that they sign Ousmane Dembele this mid year. The French winger is accessible on a free exchange after his Barcelona contract terminated toward the finish of last month, however would order a huge pay and the Blues really do have Raheem Sterling and Raphinha likewise in their sights.
Thomas Tuchel's side are supposedly leaders to sign Manchester City winger Sterling on the off chance that he leaves the Etihad this late spring, while they have likewise met Leeds' valuation of Brazilian Raphinha however the player has all the earmarks of being waiting for a transition to Barcelona. Chelsea have been emphatically connected with Dembele too, as Tuchel coached the 25-year-old at Borussia Dortmund, yet Hislop accepts a move for the Frenchman would be a slip-up.
"Assuming I am Chelsea, at the numbers that obviously Dembele is later, I am don't know that it is worth the effort," the previous West Ham goalkeeper told ESPN. "Dembele is after a huge amount of cash and keeping in mind that he has demonstrated the way that he can merit that over the most recent a half year of last season, that is all we have seen from Dembele.
"The inquiry then becomes how huge a bet would you like to take? Is it the Dembele that we saw for over two years? Or on the other hand the Dembele that we found over the most recent a half year? I simply feel that is an over the top expensive bet for a player where you're not exactly certain how he fits in.

"Cash no article I take the risk, yet given the sort of cash Dembele is evidently requesting, in the event that I am Chelsea I am somewhat hesitant."
Dembele has had a conflicting Barcelona vocation since moving from Germany in 2017, yet has discovered his feet under Xavi and kept 13 aids 21 La Liga appearances last season. Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain have likewise been referenced as detailed landing spots for Dembele and another agreement at the Nou Camp isn't impossible, yet Chelsea have supposedly made him a practical objective.

"Truly, the planning of the change from [Ronald] Koeman to Xavi has served him quite well," Hislop added. "Since he has come in and played quite well.
"Presently everything is 'Well under Xavi, this is who Dembele is', however assuming Xavi had been manager for the good of two years for contention and we triumphed ultimately the most recent a half year that we have seen, I don't think he has the arranging power that he does in having the option to say 'Under Xavi, that is where I am at my very best'.
"Once more the other thing for me is Barcelona caused themselves problems through imaginative bookkeeping, this simply appears as though Barcelona are misstepping the same way."
