Chelsea Advance Talks To Sign Another Brazilian Winger After West Ham’s Bid Was Rejected

2 min read

Chelsea are set to battle the likes of West Ham United and Tottenham for a hugely talented Brazilian winger this summer.

Big European clubs in talks and making move to sign the young Brazilian Winger, Wesley Gassova.

Primarily a left-winger, the right-footer plies his trade at Corinthians and has been impressing for some time despite his club currently being in the doldrums, already boasting 72 senior appearances despite being just 19 years of age and making the preliminary list of Brazil’s Copa America squad.

The Blues recently confirmed the signing of Palmeiras winger Estevao Willian for a massive £56m ($71m) deal.

The player is expected to formally join them in 2025 once he turns 18. The West London side also announced the signing of Barcelona’s young forward Marc Guiu.

Now the Chelsea owners are looking to invest more on young talented players with Brazilian wonderkid Wesley Gassova, now the latest name in the books.

Sources told Footyvaild that the attacker will certainly leave Corinthians this summer, however, he is unlikely to move to the Premier League.

Ligue 1 side Nice have been tracking the player for several weeks and have remained in contact with his representatives.

It is believed that Gassova might consider moving to France at this stage of his career instead of making a big jump by moving to the Premier League.

Reports revealed recently that West Ham have failed with a bid of €15 million (£12.6 million) to sign Wesley. It was claimed that they would go back in with another bid.
