Arsenal is reportedly firmly interested in the potential movement of Riverboard Wonder Kid and Chelsea target Ian Subaiab.
The gunner is the latest name that is strongly associated with the 18-year-old, 18, who has established himself as one of South America’s most exciting talents.
Soy Del Millo’s report states that both Arsenal and Chelsea are enthusiastic about Subiabre, but Sport Witnes also cited and translated two previous reports on the Blues about meetings with the player’s agents.
It is still unclear whether gunners will be able to move ahead of CFC in the Subiabre signed race, as West Londoners may already be doing more work on the deal.
The Chelsea Project could certainly seduce young talent at tops like Ian Sub Abre
Also imagines Subiabre being seduced to become the latest famous young talent snapped for a move to Stamford Bridge.
This current Chelsea ownership focuses on energizing the best young players around the world, and Sub-Able seems to have him in that category.
Other big South American prospects like Kendry Paes and Estevao Willian will head to Chelsea next season.
Even if there is a lot of competition on Enzo Maresca’s team, it may be wise to go to the club that he will be given the opportunity to develop and play regularly.
This could give Chelsea and its approach an advantage over Arsenal, who is currently close to winning major titles and appear to be consistently qualifying for the Champions League.
Subiabre certainly wants to be part of the winning team, but the more proven name in front of him before him may make it difficult for him to get involved very often.
