Fermin Lopez, 22, has attracted transfer interest from Chelsea and Manchester United. He prefers to remain at Barcelona, his boyhood club, but is open to a transfer given Barcelona's financial constraints. Lopez is attracted to Chelsea's recent Club World Cup win and believes he could fight for major trophies there. Chelsea seek greater creativity and technical ability in the final third, and Lopez can operate centrally or on the flanks while adding goals and creativity. Chelsea view him as a long-term investment and a talented young Spanish player capable of adapting to the Premier League.
Now, a report from Spanish publication Marca claims that the 22-year-old is seriously considering a move to the Premier League club. There is no doubt that the midfielder would prefer to stay at Barcelona, which is his boyhood club, but he is not ruling out a potential move to Chelsea this summer. Barcelona are going through financial difficulties, and it would not be a surprise if they decided to sanction his departure for the right price.
Chelsea need more creativity and technical ability in the final third, and the 22-year-old could be the ideal acquisition. The Blues are looking to build a squad for the future, and signing one of the most talented young players in Spanish football certainly aligns with their philosophy. The 22-year-old is capable of operating centrally as well as on the flanks. He will add goals and creativity to the side.
