According to Alfredo Pedulla, Donny van de Beek is on Chelsea’s radar. The highly-rated midfielder has attracted a lot of interest in his signature after fine performances for Ajax in the last 12 months. Chelsea reportedly want to act fast and sign van de Beek before his value shoots up and he becomes unattainable, but Tottenham hotspur and Barcelona could throw a spanner in the works.
With growing interest in the 21-year-old, Ajax are likely to use this to their advantage in the negotiation process. The Dutch Eredivisie won’t want to lose any of their best players, but having so many clubs keen on their talented individuals means the asking price will go up.
