Chelsea came close to signing Crystal Palace forward Michael Olise last summer, and journalist Simon Phillips has now claimed that the Blues are confident they will be able to land him when the market opens.
Olise has enjoyed an impressive rise since arriving in the Premier League from Championship side Queens Park Rangers, becoming one of the most exciting talents in the Premier League. The French forward is already making a significant impact in England’s top flight, with some of the biggest clubs now sniffing around.
Chelsea are one of the teams who are considering a move for Olise, who has been described as a ‘superstar’, but they are likely to face competition from a host of clubs.
