Barcelona plotting a move for Chelsea youngster Chukwuemeka

Published on: 23 April 2024

Barcelona is reportedly considering a bid for Chelsea's Carney Chukwuemeka this summer, revisiting their interest in the player dating back to 2022, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

Despite his promising talent, the eligible-Super Eagles forward has struggled for regular playing time under Mauricio Pochettino at Stamford Bridge, featuring in just nine Premier League matches this season.

Football-Espana suggests that Barcelona aims to leverage Chukwuemeka's limited opportunities at Chelsea to lure him to Catalonia by the end of the current campaign.

With a midfield already brimming with talent including Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, and Gavi, among others, Chukwuemeka, would face stiff competition for a place in Xavi's squad if he chooses to make the move.
