The Blues have offered a lucrative package to the 26-year-old defender and it remains to be seen whether Adarabioyo is keen on a move to Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have a talented squad and an ambitious project. The English defender could be attracted to the idea of joining them on a free transfer.

Chelsea will be without Thiago Silva next season and they need a quality central defender. Adarabioyo seems like the ideal acquisition. He should be able to settle quickly and make an instant impact as well.

Chelsea are going through financial difficulties and they will not be able to spend freely. Signing a player of his quality on a free transfer would be ideal for them.

Newcastle want Tosin Adarabioyo

Meanwhile, Newcastle are in a similar situation and they will have to be diligent with their transfer business this summer.

They will hope to sign the 26 year-old defender as well and it will be interesting to see if they can convince the player to choose them over Chelsea. They might not be able to offer a more lucrative contract to the player compared to Chelsea because of their financial situation. Both clubs will have to comply with the financial regulations, but Chelsea bring in more revenues and they will be able to sell out more money.

The 26-year-old central defender will want to join the club where he will get to compete for trophies and Chelsea could certainly provide him with that opportunity. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds.
