Chelsea now looking at 24-year-old UCL centre back with negotiable €60m release clause | OneFootball

Chelsea are reportedly now interested in signing Sporting CP centre back Gonçalo Inácio, who will be in action tonight.

Sporting CP are taking on Arsenal in the second leg of their Champions League clash after drawing the first leg 2-2. And Chelsea fans will have close eyes on this game anyway because their pending new winger Geovany Quenda is likely to play some part in the game as well.

But now, they might want to keep an eye on 24-year-old defender Inacio as well, because he is the latest name to be linked with a possible summer move to the Stamford Bridge side.

Chelsea will prioritise the move for a new centre back this summer, and the noise is just starting to build around it all as we head towards the end of the season now.

Chelsea in for Inacio?

As reported by Diario AS journalist Edu Burgos, Inácio attracts interest from the big clubs.

His great season at Sporting, especially in the Champions League, has drawn attention in England from Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United and Spain.

His release clause is €60million but it’s negotiable.
