Chelsea want to sign West Ham winger Jarrod Bowen with £4.25bn takeover completed
Chelsea are showing an interest in West Ham winger Jarrod Bowen with the Hammers set to offer the 25-year old a new deal, according to 90min.
Bowen is set to make his international debut during England’s June UEFA Nations League campaign.
90min reported on Wednesday [1 June] that Chelsea along with Manchester United and Arsenal have shown interest in recent weeks.
The West London club have recently been taken over by Todd Boehly’s American consortium in a deal worth £4.25billion.
Money talks
Could Chelsea’s new takeover give them the financial muscle to prize Bowen away from The London Stadium?
If the West London side can move before Bowen engages in new contract discussions then they could stand a chance.
Any move for the West Ham winger will become a lot harder should the winger sign a new deal at the club.
Bowen’s contract situation will be an intriguing story this summer.
At 25, the winger is at an age where he needs to play at the highest level he possibly can and if he wants to win trophies, Stamford Bridge is the place to go.
The Irons need to start surrounding their top talent with real quality if they want to keep their best players at the club.
These upcoming contract discussion will not be as straightforward as the club hierarchy are anticipating.
Bowen could potentially have plenty of potential suitors already sounding him out about a potential move away from West Ham.
18 goals and 11 assists in a Premier League season will always draw plenty of attention.
