Chelsea make approach for transfer target who has £630m release clause

Chelsea makes a surprise attempt for Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior.

Chelsea made an attempt on Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr who is reportedly unsettled at the club under Zinedine Zidane.

The 20-year old who joined Los Blancos in 2018 from Brazilian side Flamengo for £40.5m scored eight goals in 69 appearances for the side.

The Brazilian is apparently growing frustrated due to the lack of opportunities he is being provided.

He was indeed left on the bench for their disappointing Champions League game against Manchester City.

Chelsea are on the lookout for an attacker since Pedro and Willian left the club after their contract expired.

The Brazilian still has five-years left on his contract and has a gigantic £630million release clause but Zidane could let him leave for the right price.

“Others have played, but on these occasions, when a team loses, you can look for things,” Zinedine Zidane said.

“Vinicius could enter, other players too. I am the coach and when I made the changes today there were others. Nothing more.”

“Everyone can give their opinion from outside, it’s normal, but then I’m the coach,” Zidane responded.

“Yes, you could change before, change to another player, but that’s not going to change things.

“Today the changes have been those, I don’t know he has been able and there is no need to look for excuses for anything.”
