Impressing Seria A star opens door to Chelsea move with latest announcement
Sassuolo star Manuel Locatelli has had a transfer to Chelsea mooted, and the 23-year-old admits that a move away from his native Italy is “an option” for him to explore in upcoming windows.
His combative qualities in a holding role and ability to push on into the final third when required have led to admiring glances being shot in his direction from across Europe, including us.
Despite the fine job that Thomas Tuchel has done as boss of the Blues, he is still expected to delve into that transfer kitty of his in the summer and try to add a few players to the squad that will give his squad something different.
Now amid all the speculation surrounding his future, Locatelli has admitted that leaving Italy is an option, Quizzed on his future by Corriere dello Sport, Locatelli said: “I don’t know if this will be my last year here or what the future holds for me. When, and if, there are opportunities, we will evaluate them all together.”
He added on the potential of seeking out a new challenge outside of Serie A: “Playing abroad is an option for me and at the moment I’m not excluding anything. It’s part of my job and it means that I have raised my level.
“Certain certificates of esteem and interest from big clubs increase my motivations and make me understand I’m on the right track.”
The lad is very talented and definitely one for the future, but we firmly believe that a move to the Premier League is not the right one to make and he needs a few more years of development to be really ready for a move?
