Chelsea interested in signing Premier League duo – Reports
Chelsea are reportedly keen on signing both David Raya and Ivan Toney from Brentford. The Blues want to bolster their squad and see a goalkeeper and striker as one of their top needs for the summer.
The 2-time UEFA Champions League winners have been monitoring the Brentford duo for quite some time now and are said to be impressed with their performances this season. Football London now claim that a move for both is on the cards when the summer window opens.
Raya has stalled contract talks with Brentford and is open to taking the next step in his career. He has confirmed that two deals have been rejected as he wants a better offer and is looking for a big move.
Chelsea are ready to move on from Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy, as both have not been at their best. The Senegal star is likely to be the first to leave as contract talks have stalled and he has interest in him.
Toney has been in sensational form for Brentford this season amid the betting controversy. His performances have caught the attention of several Premier League clubs, including Chelsea and Manchester United, but both clubs are waiting for The FA to reveal his punishment before making a move.
It remains to be seen whether Chelsea will be able to sign both players, but the club is reportedly willing to spend big to bolster their squad ahead of the next season. Mauricio Pochettino might have the final say in the transfers once he takes over at the club.
