Transfer News: Chelsea join the race for Villarreal star

Chelsea join the race for Villarreal star

After Chelsea’s lost to West Ham in Wednesday’s 3-2 defeat, ideally the team will be searching for some defensive fortifications notwithstanding all the marquee names supposed in attack. Declan Rice was the primary name referenced thusly, and more names are most likely anticipated to be mentioned.

As indicated by Ivisionsport, one other alternative could be Pau Torres, who plays at Villarreal, where he has a £45m release clause. The youngster has been extremely great this season in La Liga, and great exhibitions consistently attract interest. As indicated by the report, Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City and Barcelona are all conceivably competing for his signature.

Pau Torres was born in the city, the Villarreal academy product made many appearances this season, and has been an essential part of their season, which sees them sit fifth, they are only three points away from a Champions League spot.

Pau Torres also made his debut for Spain in November.

He is left-footed, and is very tall at 1.91 meters, which would help with our aerial issues.

Pau Torres’ contract runs right until 2024, but the moderate release clause could imply that he won’t see 2021 with them, not to mention 2024.

Pau Torres may even now be very raw, but he is very young, and there is potential to improve. He could be an interesting alternative as Chelsea hope to reinforce at centre-back for next season.
