A South American player would be an ideal acquisition.

His contract with Newcastle runs until 2028 and he could be under pressure from Newcastle to sell him at the end of the season. The player&#8217;s transfer fee is thought to be around 75 million euros, and Chelsea are said to be prepared to pay that amount.<\/p>\n<p>If we want to fight for major trophies, we need players of his quality.
