According to reports, CHELSEA is preparing a surprise move to entice an ex-Arsenal player back to London.
Recent years have seen an increase in transfers between the two teams, with Kai Havertz and Jorginho leaving the Blues for the Emirates.
However, this star has won multiple significant awards in Italy since making their Premier League debut nine years ago.
It is now purported that Mauricio Pochettino will make a move to try and grab him and resolve a difficult situation.
charge £1 billion has been spent on players by Todd Boehly since taking charge at Stamford Bridge.
Goalkeepers Robert Sanchez and Djordje Petrovic have since joined the team.
After leaving Brighton in the summer of last year, the 26-year-old Spaniard began the season as the first choice.
But Serbian Petrovic, who signed in August after leaving the New England Revolution, was given an opportunity to shine due to an injury, and he has maintained the top slot ever since.
However, Tutto Juve seems to be implying that Poch is still dissatisfied with his choices for goalies.
Furthermore, they claim that Chelsea may be about to add another player in that area by pursuing Wojciech Szczesny of Juventus.
The 34-year-old is rumored to be available for £8.5 million, and Michele Di Gregorio of Monza is actively seeking a replacement.
He still has one year left on his contract, which is reportedly earning about £125,000 per week.
However, the Polish international is one of the players for whom the Italian team is reportedly willing to consider deals in order to cut costs.
Currently sitting third in Serie A, Szczesny has made 32 appearances thus far this season and has preserved 15 clean sheets.
Because he joined Arsenal’s academy in 2006 after leaving Legia Warsaw, he already had 11 years of experience in the country.
Having gained experience on loan at Brentford, the star made his Arsenal debut in 2009 and appeared in 181 games under Arsene Wenger.
He helped the team win two FA Cups, thus he’s still well-liked by the fans.
Nevertheless, in 2017 he decided to permanently leave Roma for Juventus following a two-year loan because he was fed up with waiting to be No. 1.
Since then, he has amassed three Serie A victories in addition to two Coppa Italia trophies.
Szczesny has performed for the Old Lady 249 times in total.
