Chelsea is reportedly in a strong position to recruit Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap, who is also in talks with clubs like Manchester United, Newcastle, and Everton. Reports indicate that Delap, who has a £30 million release clause, may prefer Chelsea partly due to their Champions League qualification. This potential move highlights the importance of performance for clubs like Chelsea that impacts their attractiveness to top players. Delap's prolific scoring in the Premier League has attracted significant interest.
If indeed Delap would now opt for Chelsea over Man United because of the opportunity to play Champions League football, it highlights just how much was on the line for Enzo Maresca's side against Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
The 22-year-old helped himself to 12 top-flight goals for the Tractor Boys... BBC pundit Alan Shearer has hailed him as a nuisance to play against.
