Guardian: Yi Town wants to add a loan to Jiwu in the Drapp deal, but this may be a barrier

May 29th According to the Guardian, Ipswich intends to loan Jiwu.

It is reported that Chelsea will strive to be efficient in the summer transfer market, and signing at least one new striker is the top priority. Drapp, 22, has reached a preliminary agreement with West London clubs, and although Everton, Manchester United and Newcastle are also interested in him, Drapp is inclined to join Chelsea and his severance has been reduced to £30 million.

Drapp hopes to participate in European competitions and has worked with Chelsea's Maresca at Manchester City's youth training camp. However, Ipswich hopes to add the condition of a loan on Mark Giu in the negotiations, but this may become an obstacle. Sources say Drapp is likely to join Chelsea.

It is not clear whether Chelsea will sign only one striker. If two strikers are introduced, it may have an impact on Nicholas Jackson's future. Chelsea are also paying attention to Hugo Ekitic, but Frankfurt's £84m price is too high. In addition, Chelsea is also interested in RB Leipzig's Sesco, but he is much more expensive than Delapp.

In addition, Chelsea has reached a preliminary agreement with its partner Strasbourg for Dutch striker Emmanuel Emmega to join in 2026. Chelsea also has the potential to strengthen the defense, with Ajax's Jorell Harto on their shortlist. Maresca also needs to consider Wesley Fofana's health, and Chelsea may also raise funds by selling Badiashell, Trevo Chaloba and DiSassi. As for whether to sign in a new goalkeeper, or continue to trust Robert Sanchez and Philip Jorgensen, there is no conclusion yet.
