Chelsea had a clear aim for this summer: fichar to Jadon Sancho. Unfortunately for the 'blues', the plans of the talentoso extreme of the Borussia Dortmund do not include to play in Stamford Bridge the season that comes. Or at least, the English does not see doing it each weekend with the blue T-shirt of the londinenses. The wish of the attacker would be to finish in the Manchester United, that according to all the informations that have gone out this week would be the team preferred of the ex of the City.

The "no" of Sancho, that expects that the 'network devils' can arrive to an agreement with the Dortmund when it open the market, opens a new stage for Chelsea. Frank Lampard, technician of the group of London, has demanded him to Roman Abrahimovic signings of quality that can mark the difference near of the rival area. The English jewel of the German club would fulfil with these requirements, but after his refusal already would be necessary to look for new options.

In this case, according to the newspaper 'Sport', the alternative of Chelsea to Jadon would be Philippe Coutinho. The Brazilian would be now a serious applicant to turn into the new mediapunta 'blue' for the next campaign. This would be a glorious news for the FC Barcelona, that is wishing to remove of on to the still player of the Bayern of Munich. The culés know that the 'blues' have a lot of money by have not been able to spend at all the summer gone through the sanction that imposed him and already is rubbing the hands.

It seems that already there would be contacts between the two clubs and between Chelsea and the agent of Cou, by what the operation already would be taking form. It does not speak still of figures, but the Barça pretended to take out of 80 to 90 millions by the ex of the Liverpool before it exploded this economic crisis by the coronavirus. Now, perhaps the blaugrana would conform with something less, although if the 'blues' have of 'cash', the Catalans could try take advantage of of the situation.

The mediapunta Brazilian shined in his stage in the Premier in the rows of the Liverpool and Chelsea suffered him in his own meats several seasons. With 27 years, the one of Rio de Janeiro still has time to recover his best version and return to the league in which better surrendered could be just what needs. For the moment there is not at all enclosed, but the Barça will try that this operation fructifique.

Chelsea will study the operation before putting of full

The 'blues', by his part, have to decide now which course take after the "no" of Sancho. Coutinho Would be this second dish, but is true that does not seem too much to the English. The one of the Dortmund has more future, more speed, more goal and for the time being is better in almost everything. The Brazilian could give him a lot to the English to recover his best level, but is an operation with some risk, that with the crisis that there is right now, in Stamford Bridge will study before carrying out.
