Report: Chelsea keen on signing Bayern Munich attacker compared to Arjen Robben | OneFootball

Chelsea are reportedly keen on signing Bayern Munich attacker Lennart Karl, who has been compared to former Blue Arjen Robben.

Robben was one of the best wingers to ever play the game and certainly one of the best to ever play for Chelsea. It was just a shame he didn’t stay at our club longer because he was a real joy to watch and a superb player who would really take the game to the opponent single handily and was a real direct and classic style winger – something we don’t see enough of in football today.

And now, according to a report that has been picked up by Caught Offside, Chelsea are looking at signing a player who has been compared to Robben.

Karl to Chelsea?

Bayern Munich attacker Lennart Karl has been linked with a move away from Germany in recent weeks.

According to a report from Fussball Daten, Arsenal and Chelsea are interested in signing the 17-year-old attacker. He has been compared to Arjen Robben for his style of play and described as a player with “fearless magic”.

The report claims that the talented attacker has several clubs across Europe monitoring him. He will cost around €80-€90 million.

I don’t think Chelsea will be paying that for him. So if that is the price, then you can basically rule The Blues out already!

Stats are often heavily looked at in modern day football, and it splits opinions. But interestingly, some stats we came across earlier this week shows that Chelsea only have a 25% win rate when one player is starting in the team. It doesn’t look good for them!
