It wouldn’t be a January transfer window without several of England’s biggest clubs, such as Chelsea and Tottenham, being linked with the same player, which appears to be the case with Borussia Dortmund star Jamie Gittens.
Gittens is having a fantastic season in Germany, already scoring double digits for an outstanding Dortmund club.
His performance, however, has drawn admiring eyes from the Premier League. Tottenham are interested in signing Gittens as a long-term Heung-Min Son successor, but have been told he would cost more than £50 million.
In a further blow to Tottenham, Gittens appears to have opened the door for a move to Chelsea.
Jamie Gittens is eager to sign for Chelsea this summer.
According to GiveMeSport, Dortmund star Gittens is open-minded about his future and has signaled a willingness to sign with Chelsea.
While Gittens is scheduled to play in Germany this season, it is reported that he will evaluate his future in the summer and that a move to Chelsea is being considered.
Enzo Maresca is thought to be a great fan of the winger, and with uncertainty around the likes of Joao Felix, Christopher Nkunku, and Mykhaylo Mudryk, a spot in the front three could open up.
Dortmund, on the other hand, may demand a high price for Gittens, with GMS saying that a proposal of around £84 million will suffice to sell.
TBR Football reported in December that a number of Premier League clubs have done their homework on Gittens, but Chelsea appears to have an advantage for the time being.
Jamie Gittens has spoken to Jadon Sancho about the England move.
Unsurprisingly, Jamie Gittens has already spoken with a number of individuals about a move to the Premier League, and TBR Football knows he has confided in Jadon Sancho.
Sancho had previously played for Manchester City and Manchester United, but he is currently excelling at Chelsea under Maresca’s supervision.
Gittens will be worried of Sancho’s decrease in form after leaving Dortmund, but with the England winger impressing at Chelsea, the Blues might be the preferred destination.
