Chelsea meet with agent this week as they try to battle Man City and three other Premier League rivals to sign £40M-rated Belgian star.

 The Blues are not relenting in their pursuit for the Belgian Midfielder. 
Chelsea “met” with Romeo Lavia’s representatives “this week” ahead of a potential summer bid for the Southampton midfielder, according to RMC reporter Sacha Tavolieri. 

Per reports, Chelsea are on the hunt for a readymade midfielder as they are not willing to sign Denis Zakaria on a permanent term.

Lavia is known to be a key target for Graham Potter’s side but there are a number of complicating factors that will make a deal difficult to pull off.

The teenager’s former club Manchester City have a buyback clause, which means they can re-sign him for £40m this summer. 

Romeo Lavia


Southampton are likely to hold out for a much higher fee from other teams, which means the current Premier League champions have a key advantag

There will also be other clubs involved in the battle to sign Lavia. Manchester United and Arsenal have also been credited with an interest recently, so the Saints will not be pressed into making a quick sale.

Magical display and goal from Nicolas Jackson that shows he's Chelsea's next Didier Drogba.

Image
 Nicolas Jackson was on target for the Blues in their 4-1 trashing of Burnley yesterday.  Raheem Sterling takes the ball from midfield and turns around on his marker to leave him biting dust. Once in the final third he finds Cole Palmer in the box, who calmly lays it to Nicolas Jackson right in front of goal. The striker does very well in controlling the ball, adjusting his footing, and striking it for Chelsea’s fourth goal against Burnley. Comparisons have been made with Nicolas Jackson's stats for the Blues and that of Legend, Didier Drogba. Jackson's first goal for the club was a Drogba-esque one.  However, this performance and display from Jackson vs Burnley will convince you that he's just Chelsea's next hit striker after Didier Drogba: VIDEO: Chelsea may have just found their next Didier Drogba in Nicolas Jackson.
