Chelsea are keen on Colombian striker Jhon Duran after his amazing performance against Liverpool.
According to The Mirror, Chelsea has a definite interest in securing the services of Aston Villa striker Jhon Duran after his recent outstanding display of talent against Liverpool. The Colombian international has been an understudy to Ollie Watkins and would be seeking more play time with a transfer this summer.
Despite not being a regular starter, the Colombian striker has scored eight goals in his debut season with the English team, and there’s no denying that he has the ability to become a key member of Aston Villa in the years to come. However, the 20-year-old striker has struggled for regular game time and might be looking for a move this summer.
It will be interesting to see if the West Midlands outfit is ready to sanction his departure. With just one dependable striker on the team, Aston Villa cannot expect to be competitive next season. Although with as much financial resources as Chelsea’s, they could really tempt Villa into transferring Duran this summer.
Last Monday, Duran came off the bench to score a late brace that gave Villa the advantage they needed to go to the Champions League. At Villa Park, Aston Villa and Liverpool played to a thrilling 3-3 draw thanks to a stunning late double from Jhon Duran, which helped the club come back from a 3-1 disadvantage.
The outstanding showcase of talent has caught the eye of a few clubs, including Chelsea, who is making a move for the star forward this summer. With a player like Duran, any team would be lucky to have him in their squad, according to his current form.
Chelsea needs to bolster the offensive side’s calibre and depth, and the 20-year-old would be a wise long-term investment. He possesses the ability and capacity to become a dependable performer in the top division of England.
Having said that, Aston Villa will want more depth next year, particularly if they want to compete in the UEFA Champions League. They need more alternatives available to them since they will have to cope with more matches.
Even if Villa has to hold onto the Colombian international, Chelsea has the financial muscle to lure the West Midlands team into selling the player. It will be intriguing to watch how things pan out at the end of this season.
