According to reports, Chelsea’s London counterparts – Crystal Palace are prepared to spend over £20m to sign midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka this summer.
The English born Midfielder joined Chelsea in 2022 from Aston Villa in a deal worth £20m, but his time at the club has been plagued by injury and he’s made just 27 appearances in two seasons.
The 20-year-old had a good pre-season under Mauricio Pochettino and had a strong start to the campaign but he got injured after scoring in the second game against West Ham which ruined his season.
Carney Chukwuemeka’s future at Chelsea appears to be unclear and after starting their first two pre-season games against Wrexham and Celtic he hasn’t featured in any of the games since.
In fact against Inter Milan on Sunday Lesley Ugochukwu was chosen ahead of him from the bench in perhaps a clear indication that Chukwuemeka isn’t part of Enzo Maresca’s plans.
Moreover, , reports from London confirmed that Crystal Palace would be prepared to pay over £20m for the Englishman as they look to add more reinforcements following the departure of Michael Olise.
