Chelsea are progressing in negotiations to acquire Marc Guiu by activating his €6 million release clause. The Premier League club is close to finalising a long-term contract with the 17-year-old striker, surpassing Bayern Munich after productive discussions over the weekend.
Barcelona had proposed a new contract to Guiu, but the player has yet to provide a definitive response. The young forward, known for his agility and goal-scoring prowess, has been a target for both Chelsea and Bayern Munich, with the latter now trailing in the race.
Guiu’s potential move to Chelsea marks a significant step in the club’s efforts to bolster their attacking options. The teenager’s decision is eagerly awaited, as it will determine his future amidst interest from top European clubs.
