Former Chelsea star Emmanuel Petit has suggested his former club do everything imaginable for Erling Haaland this summer.
The European champions of Thomas Tuchel are for a striker shown.
And Haaland, 20, tops Chelsea’s list.
The Borussia Dortmund star has scored goals in 59 games in 18 months in Germany.
And Chelsea are poised to break their club move record by securing a deal worth £150 million.
Haaland “awaits” the Stamford Bridge this summer.
And it has even been claimed that he has already accepted lucrative terms for a five-year contract.
Chelsea enthusiasts who have Haaland in mind will see them challenge Manchester City for the name next season.
And Petit, who spent 3 years in south-west London, suggested the Blues do everything imaginable given their current lack of firepower.
Petit told Paddy Power, “I’m going to pass to simplify things. Giroud is about to leave Chelsea, most likely Tammy Abraham will be on the side of the line. “
“Timo Werner constantly struggles to score goals and Kai Havertz is not a striker. Chelsea want a new striker and someone who scores a lot of goals.
“Haaland is the answer. He is strong, tough and young with a brilliant career ahead of him.
“Haaland’s price is already very high and links with Tuchel increase his chances of signing for Chelsea.
“Offensively, he may become the finalist Chelsea really need. I can believe that his relationship with Mount, Havertz, Pulisic and Ziyech made him score many goals at Stamford Bridge.
“Chelsea want a more sensible striker, it’s as undeniable as that. “
Emmanuel Petit is Paddy Power’s EURO 2020 ambassador, which encourages bettors to replace bookmakers starting with its “Switch for Better” campaign.
The switch to Paddy will ensure that £5 single bet developers decide the tournament games. For more details, visit the Paddy Power website. If the grass looks greener, stop playing!
