Jamie Gittens to Chelsea simply appears like a kind of transfers that’s destined to occur.
Each high journalist and reporter has put Gittens excessive up on our winger shortlist this summer season, and a few are even reporting superior talks now.
SPTC sources have heard that talks are occurring for Gittens, and he’s excessive on the shortlist.
Alex Criminal of talkSPORT reported yesterday that Chelsea had been advancing in talks to signal Gittens, and his price could be round £35m.
Journalist Graeme Bailey adopted that up reporting that Chelsea are frontrunners to get the deal performed to signal Gittens this summer season.
“There have been conversations,”
Bailey informed TBR Soccer.
“Gittens needs to return again to the Premier League – he’s prepared now. So it’s an actual chance.”
“There have been talks about him lately, and it’s been progressing in latest weeks. He may very nicely be the one.”
I do know these should not the 2 finest sources, however there may be a whole lot of noise now on Gittens to Chelsea and to me, it simply appears like it’s destined to occur.
I’ve been saying for some time that I nonetheless foresee one thing occurring with Jadon Sancho and Dortmund – Chelsea may signal and promote him this summer season. Carney Chukwuemeka is needed on a everlasting now by Dortmund, so that is what I see as a possible commerce alternative for Chelsea, they usually do clearly like Jamie Gittens.
He does have some respectable knowledge…
In information supplied by DataMB, in comparison with U21 wingers within the High 5 Leagues, nobody has extra dribbles per 100 touches (34.7) or key passes per 100 touches (3.1) than Gittens. He additionally ranks second in objectives per 100 touches (1.44).
I feel he appears like an thrilling participant for certain, and he’ll solely flip 21 in August.
However I’m removed from satisfied that he would actually enhance what we’ve got or elevate us proper now. He has the potential to, for certain, however I’d see him as an enormous danger. He’s nonetheless a uncooked participant and he doesn’t but present wherever close to sufficient objectives and assists. I do suppose his fundamentals are good although.
I watched him dwell this season at an England U21 sport and to me he seemed like a younger Raheem Sterling by way of how he performed. Sterling was once fairly good, so I suppose this can be a praise. However Sterling was and all the time has been a reasonably irritating participant at occasions too and was up and down with kind, and I also can foresee Gittens being a bit like that.
I suppose this sort of signing of potential moderately than confirmed sums up our latest recruitment beneath our house owners and sporting administrators.
What do you all suppose?
