Chelsea line up summer move for 22-year-old French attacker

Chelsea are considering making a move for the French winger Michael Olise in the upcoming summer transfer window.

According to Rudy Galetti, they have their eyes set on the 22-year-old Crystal Palace sensation.

Olise was a part of the Chelsea youth ranks back in the day but things didn’t work out for him at the London club. However, he could soon return to Stamford Bridge and be an important part of their first team as the Blues consider the idea of signing him.

The 22-year-old joined Crystal Palace in the summer of 2021 and he hasn’t looked back since. While he has struggled with a hamstring injury this term, he still has nine goal contributions in his 11 outings.

Michael Olise to replace Raheem Sterling at Chelsea?

His impressive rise, consistent performances and huge potential have put him on the radar of Chelsea who are preparing for the potential departure of Raheem Sterling.

The Blues are looking to offload a few of their senior players who are not in their plans moving ahead and Sterling is one of them.

If he does end up leaving, the London club will need to bring a new winger and Olise is one of their targets. They have been monitoring their former youth player for a while now and could go all in for his services in the summer.

While he still has over three years left on his deal at Crystal Palace, the Eagles might not be able to stand in his way if Chelsea come knocking.
