Chelsea offer to sign Aaron Anselmino, submit four-year contract

Chelsea are reportedly keen to sign highly-rated Argentine defender Aaron Anselmino during the summer transfer window.

According to the journalist Uriel LugtChelsea have now submitted a bid of around $17 million for talented young Argentine defender Aaron Anselmino, and have also offered him a four-year contract.

The 19-year-old Argentine defender is highly coveted, and he has a bright future. He could become a key player for Chelsea in the coming seasons. It will be interesting to see if Boca Juniors are ready to accept the Premier League club’s offer.

Chelsea are one of the biggest clubs in the world and the opportunity to join them could be very exciting for the young defender. It would be a major step in his career and he could test himself in the Premier League. Regular football in England could accelerate his development and help him realize his world-class potential.

Anselmino to replace Thiago Silva?

Chelsea recently parted ways with Thiago Silva and will need to adequately replace the Brazilian. Signing a quality defender should be one of their priorities for next season, and it remains to be seen if they can sign Anselmino in the coming weeks. The talented young defender has also been linked with other English clubs.

The 19-year-old would be a long-term investment for Chelsea, and he could easily justify that investment in the coming seasons. If the Blues can close the deal for the reported $17 million, it could look like a good deal in the long run.

It will be interesting to see if Chelsea can convince the player to join them and provide him with the necessary assurances. The talented young defender needs to play regularly at this stage of his career, and he cannot afford to sit on the bench of a big club.

The Argentine wonderkid is only expected to join Chelsea if he is guaranteed first-team action. Although he may not be ready to become a key player for the London club, he is good enough to play in English football, and high exposure could help him develop further.
