Chelsea looking to bring 23-year-old forward back to England after scouting mission | OneFootball

Chelsea are preparing a €38 million offer to sign Bologna attacking sensation Jonathan Rowe after scouting him last month.

The Norwich graduate is enjoying an impressive debut campaign in Italy, and it has caught the attention of quite a few top clubs. Chelsea are one of the clubs that are interested in his services after having scouted him in April.

Chelsea are keen on Jonathan Rowe

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via SportWitness, the Blues are plotting a raid on Bologna. They are preparing a €38 million offer to prise him away from the Italian outfit, with growing concern at Bologna over the Premier League giants’ increasing interest.

Rowe, who joined Bologna from Marseille last summer, has had quite an impact at the Italian club. He has been involved in 40 matches for his new club and has contributed towards 11 goals. While he prefers playing on the left flank, the 23-year-old is equally effective on both sides.

His impressive performances and massive potential have resulted in a lot of interest. Chelsea had their scouts keeping a close eye on him last month, and they are now ready to raid Bologna for the English winger.

Blues preparing an offer for Rowe

The Italian club do not want to lose him just yet, but the threat is real. The Blues are preparing a €38 million offer, which could tempt the Serie A outfit. The only thing coming in their way is that they might not have Champions League football next season.

If Rowe decides to move on, he could look to join a club that can offer Champions League football. The Blues are not in the best financial position, and with Alejandro Garnacho, Jamie Gittens, and Pedro Neto already capable of featuring on the left flank, they may need to offload one of them before pushing ahead with the move.
