According to reports, Luke Harris, a 17-year-old prospect for Fulham, is available for £30 million from Chelsea. The offensive midfielder, who last month scored three goals against the under-21 team of the Blues, has been selected to play for Wales against Poland in the Nations League on Sunday. Roman Abramovich had placed Chelsea up for sale, and Todd Boehly purchased the team at the end of May. Additionally, the west London giants added eight new players during the summer transfer window, during which the American spent more than £270 million.
The Blues have the financial resources to contend for Premier League and Champions League titles in the next seasons. Harris has also been seen as a potential influencer within the club. The Sunday Mirror/People Sport reports that a deal for the player is now likely, with Chelsea prepared to pay an initial £25 million plus $5 million in add-ons to secure their man.
