Chelsea to offer 40 million plus Werner for De Ligt

Central defender Matthijs de Ligt has ended all negotiations to renew his contract at Juventus. His contract expires in June 2024. The Dutchman is reportedly looking for a new club.

Chelsea and Man Utd are reportedly the favourites to sign De Ligt although they are not the only ones. The footballer has reportedly been offered to Barca via his agents. In any case, the West London club are thinking of fighting until the end for the central defender. 'Sky Sport' says that they are finalising an offer which they hope will receive Juventus' approval ahead of other clubs.

Chelsea will put 40 million pounds on the table. In addition, they will offer Timo Werner who, according to BeSoccer Pro, has a market value of 77.1 million euros. Chelsea are hoping the offer is good enough so that Tuchel can count on the defender for the 2022-23 season.
