According to football journalist Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea is currently in a fierce competition with up to ten other top teams in pursuit of a promising attacker. Romano revealed to CaughtOffside that winger Antonio Nusa is attracting interest from elite clubs, including Chelsea, who had attempted to sign him last summer as part of their strategy to secure emerging talent ahead of rivals.
In an unusual twist, it is reported that the Norwegian international rejected a move to Stamford Bridge in the previous transfer window. Nusa himself stated that despite being offered a substantial sum, money wasn’t the deciding factor for him at the time. Whether this stance remains unchanged for the Club Brugge player in upcoming transfer windows remains uncertain, especially as the potential for a significant move becomes more apparent.
Romano emphasized that Chelsea is not the sole contender for Nusa’s signature, with approximately ten other top clubs across Europe closely monitoring the winger. While Nusa is recognized as one of the league’s most gifted wingers, Romano suggests that any potential transfer is not expected to happen soon or in the January window but might materialize in the coming months.
Nusa’s swift rise to stardom this season has been remarkable, earning him a reputation as a ‘fearless’ player who isn’t afraid to make an impact, whether for his club or alongside Erling Haaland in international competitions. As Romano points out, the talented winger’s abilities are drawing widespread attention, making the pursuit of his signature a highly competitive and drawn-out process expected to unfold in the near future.
