Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing former Manchester United midfielder Andreas Pereira. They are looking to bring in the Brazil international as a potential replacement for Conor Gallagher.
Gallagher came through the Blues' academy and has made 95 senior appearances for the club. However, he's constantly been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, with rivals Tottenham Hotspur interested in signing him. If he leaves, the west London side will look for a replacement.
As per Brazilian outlet GE Globo, Chelsea have identified former Manchester United midfielder Andreas Pereira as a potential replacement. They have already spoken to his agent Kia Joorabchian about a potential move. They are willing to pay around £30-35 million with his contract with Fulham expiring in 2026.
Pereira joined Manchester United's U18 side from PSV Eindhoven's U17 side in January 2012. He graduated through the Red Devils' academy and made 75 senior appearances for them. He made multiple loan spells at the likes of Valencia, Lazio, and Flamengo before moving permanently to Fulham in 2022.
The 28-year-old has registered eight goals and 15 assists in 82 games for the Cottagers.
Chelsea interested in Barcelona star; Manchester United informed about his availability: Reports
As per HITC (via The Hard Tackle), Manchester United have been informed about the availability of Barcelona winger Raphinha. Chelsea, who were linked with him during his time at Leeds United, are also interested in signing him.
Raphinha joined Barcelona from Leeds United for a reported fee of €58 million in 2022. He's scored 20 goals and provided 25 assists in 87 games across competitions for them. However, 17-year-old Lamine Yamal has managed to make the right wing his own at the club.
Moreover, Barca are looking to sign Nico Williams and need to raise funds for his release clause worth €58 million. The Athletic Club winger would also become the first-choice left winger if he's to join the Blaugrana. Hence, Raphinha could be sold this summer.
Manchester United have been told about his availability. The Red Devils struggled in attack last season due to the poor form of the likes of Marcus Rashford and Antony. They have brought back Jadon Sancho from loan and signed Joshua Zirkzee but might need more depth on the wings.
Chelsea, meanwhile, also struggled on the left wing with Raheem Sterling and Mykhaylo Mudryk failing to impress. They could also look to sign Raphinha, who they also tried to sign in 2022.
