Chelsea heads out for the “stunning” winger. It may trigger a £42 million release clause

According to the report, Chelsea is doing everything in their power to sign a “stellar” winger and may be willing to inflict a £42 million release clause in the contract.

Blues are enthusiastic about strengthening with attacks

Nicholas Jackson has started his campaign flight, but the 23-year-old failed to score in his final 11 matches without a Premier League goal in 2025.

The Bruce’s disappointing draw against Ipswich has significantly dented Champions League aspirations, while at the same time highlighting the need for Enzo Maresca to strengthen his team this summer, and the new forward is particularly interesting.

Ipswich star Liam Dellup is one of the strikers’ main targets, and while the West Londoners have recently been discussing their contract with the British, you can also consider the move from Bayern Munich’s Matisse Tell, which is currently available for loan at Tottenham Hotspur.

In addition to signing a new striker on the agenda, we may need to bring in a new winger, given that Nuni Maduke is widely linked with travelling away from Stamford Bridge this summer.

A new target has entered the frame, according to a report from Spain. Chelsea are all out to sign Real Betis Winger Jesus Rodriguez, which has a £42 million release clause included in the Spanish deal.

The Bruce has yet to make an official bid, but am considering closing the release clause in order to win the Rodriguez signed race amid interest from other unnamed clubs.

Betis wants to keep the winger for at least one season, but if stakeholders omit the release clause, they cannot prevent him from leaving.

“Stunning” Rodriguez enjoys a groundbreaking season

The ongoing campaign was truly a breakthrough season for the 19-year-olds, earning 24 appearances in all competitions, earning two goals and two assists in the process.

The teenager certainly managed to impress the Spanish media with his performance. It was praised as a “stunning” award by journalist Alvaro Borrego.

The Spaniard’s performance over the past year shows that he is a well-balanced winger, and that he is effective on the front paws, but willing to pitch defensively.

That said, Rodriguez shows very promising signs at such a young age, but his attacks have not yet justified his £42 million spending. Chelsea should continue to monitor his performance from now until the end of the season.
