Chelsea continues its efforts to strengthen its squad during the summer transfer window, having shown renewed interest in signing the English international playmaker Eberechi Eze, a player for Crystal Palace, according to the 'CaughtOffside' website.

Eze is considered one of the standout stars of the English Premier League this season, making him a target for many top clubs. The report noted that Chelsea has already discussed the idea of signing the player this week, as the management is convinced of his ability to provide an immediate impact.

Although Eze's contract is still ongoing with Crystal Palace, there is a growing feeling at Chelsea that the chance to sign him is closer than ever, amid reports of parallel interest from other clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal.

Many Chelsea fans believe the team needs more mature and proven quality players, especially after recent signings that have focused heavily on youth, without tangible results on the pitch.

Eze, who is 26 years old, is believed to be an ideal option for this young team, as he possesses the experience and ability to make an immediate contribution.
