London's "Chelsea" this winter is well prepared to strengthen the safe line.
We have already announced that the "Blues" are close to acquiring the defender Nicolos Barella from "Cagliari". According to various sources, "Chelsea" will not hesitate to spend 45 million pounds sterling for the 21-year-old defender.
"Sky Sports" confirmed these reports and added that another midfielder familiar with "Serie A" football, Leandro Paredes, will join the team alongside the young Italian.
The 24-year-old Argentine decided to accept a lucrative offer from St. Petersburg's "Zenit" in 2017 and left "Roma". However, even after moving to Russia, he did not lose the interest of European giants - the "Blues" are approaching the end of an agreement.
Both players will essentially replace Cesc Fabregas and Daniel Drinkwater, who generally do not feature in Maurizio Sarri's tactics.
