Chelsea Targets Barcelona Star in January
The website "CaughtOffside" revealed that English club Chelsea is targeting the signing of Barcelona midfielder Marc Casado to strengthen and bolster its squad.
According to the source, the English club is preparing to make an official offer to Barcelona during the upcoming winter transfer window to sign the young player.
Casado is finding it difficult to secure a starting position in coach Hans Flick's lineup this season, which could open the door for his departure from the Catalan club in January in search of more playing time.
The report clarified that Chelsea had also attempted to sign Firmin Lopez during the last summer transfer window, but the player refused to leave and preferred to stay at Barcelona to continue developing under Flick's guidance.
