Chelsea are reportedly preparing a €38 million summer bid for Bologna forward Jonathan Rowe, according to recent reports. The 23-year-old could be heading back to England as the Blues look to strengthen their attacking options ahead of a pivotal transfer window.
After a quiet January, Chelsea are expected to be busy once again this summer. The club needs to offload several players while targeting reinforcements in defense, midfield, and attack. With a new head coach also on the horizon, this window is critical for closing the gap on Premier League rivals like Arsenal and Manchester City.
Despite criticism of their youth-focused recruitment strategy, co-owner Behdad Eghbali has hinted at adjustments to the model. Even after signing four attackers last summer and with Geovany Quenda and Emmanuel Emegha arriving, the Blues are still eyeing another forward.
While names like Morgan Rogers and Anthony Gordon have been linked, Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Jonathan Rowe is now a target. The former Marseille man joined Bologna last season and has impressed with seven goals and four assists in 41 appearances this campaign.
Galatasaray are currently leading the race, but Chelsea are preparing a €38 million offer. The main obstacle? A potential lack of Champions League football next season, which could complicate negotiations.
As the summer window approaches, Chelsea fans will be watching closely to see if this young talent returns to English football in blue.
