Attacker ‘will be good signing’ for Chelsea after admitting he wants move
Arsen Zacharyan would be a good signing for Chelsea after he told the Blues he is keen on a move – according to reporter Iomie Stanley
Zakharyan is regarded as one of the brightest prospects in world football and Chelsea were willing to pay his €15m (£12.6m) release clause, however, the deal collapsed due to FIFA and UEFA restrictions on signing Russian players.
However – Chelsea are still keeping a close eye on the talented young man and he has recently come out and stated his desire to join the Blues – announcing: ‘My agents and my club have told me that a request has come from the Chelsea. I have directly said my position is that I want to join Chelsea,’ Zakharyan told Russia’s Comment Show.
‘I know that there is a good competition in my position with Mount, Havertz, Gallagher, so I don’t mind going on loan to adapt to the European league.
‘I was stressed because I wanted this transfer.
‘Right now I have Chelsea and I want to go to Chelsea. I know that other clubs are interested in me, I am proud of that but I want to go to Chelsea.’
Now if you believe the words of Iomie Stanley – he would be a very good signing for the Blues – he told IcFootballnews: ‘If it was not for that FIFA ban – the club would have Zacharyan in the side already.
‘they are impressed by his ability and believe that they can turn him into that next big thing – especially now that Graham Potter is in charge of the club.
‘For the right money – he would be a very good signing for the club – but it will be a tough task to actually get a deal done with all the Issues in the world right now.
‘But he is a talent and would be a great buy.’
