£100 million England star is now keen to join Chelsea after talking to his agent

After some discussions about Enzo Maresca’s side and player representation, a Marquis star apparently made a potential transfer to Chelsea this summer.

Enzo Maresca’s Thoughts on Chelsea’s Midfielder

According to reliable journalist Simon Phillips in January, Maresca feels that the club seems to be missing some type of outline.

While Chelsea is expected to make substantial investments in new strikers and centre-backs this summer, Maresca has clarified the Stamford Bridge hierarchy in the winter window as he aspires to become a potential new senior midfielder star.

Despite contacts from some well-known figures, including Man United Sensation Kobbie Mainoo, Maresca was forced to settle for the teenage prospect Mathis Amougou – who joined Chelsea late in January’s Saint-étienne.

The Frenchman has since made a appearance for Chelsea – a seven-minute cameo against Southampton – he is expected to return to Ligue 1 with Strasbourg as sister club Strasbourg for the 2025/2026 season, so the West Londoner can return well for the new Midfield technician market.

The report shows that Chelsea is considering many options. They could even raid Barcelona for some key players, including Frenkie de Jong, who was apparently offered by the intermediary (Graeme Bailey) to Maresca’s side.

Gavi is also on Chelsea’s transfer list and is believed to have been in touch with fellow Catalan midfielder Marc Casado (Cadena Ser).

Close to home and far from Camp No, Chairman Todd Boehly personally weighed the prospects of summer bidding for Sunderland star Jobe Bellingham. The Sun reported this week that Chelsea is offering a quote for Bellingham, but Mainoo is said to remain firm in Chelsea’s mind.

The 19-year-old is one of Manchester United’s main stars, but his contract expires in 2027 and currently earns other big names on Ruben Amorim’s side.

Negotiations on fresh clauses are delaying, with Chelsea lurking in the backstage as he spys on interesting situations at Old Trafford.

After contact, Kobbie Mainoo is keen to join Chelsea

According to TeamTalk, Mainoo was allegedly interested in joining Man United to Chelsea, driven by Maresca – after Bruce made some contact with his camp.

The teenager is considered the real person to watch this summer, and Chelsea will be one of his main contenders for signature, even if he is currently focused on Manchester United’s life.

Amorim’s side is alert to PSR and therefore has hesitant to ratify contracts, but this position may force them to some of their most critical assets to force people to raise summer exports – including Mainoo.

Meanwhile, Chelsea will have the opportunity to reach an agreement for the British. However, some reports claim that United won’t sell for £100 million, so Blueco may even need to spend nine figures on players since the player took over for the third time.
