Chelsea joined the race for striker Borussia D Pierre-Emerick Obama Obama. The Gabonese striker has recently been interested in Milan, but now Rosso Neri has a competitor in the person of Chelsea.

The Blue leadership made a bid for negotiations with Lukak, which did not lead to the expected outcome. The Belgian chose to move to Manchester United, while Chelsea will have to step up in other directions.

At the moment it is the Gabonese that is the main option for Chelsea. The effectiveness and technical arsenal of the player make it preferable to other candidates considered by the club.

Previously, Borussia D called the amount for which Obama is ready to release.
