Chelsea are reportedly set to meet the representatives of one top transfer target this week in order to push towards securing a big deal this summer.
The Blues are set to spend big again in this transfer window as they look to give adequate backing to yet another new manager at Stamford Bridge.
Enzo Maresca has been announced as the new head coach for the upcoming season, and backing will be required in order to allow him to challenge at the top end of the table again.
They already look set to make their first addition of the summer very soon, with it being reported that everything is in place for Tosin Adarabioyo to join the club on a free transfer.
However, they are reportedly keen to splash the clash too, and ‘Academy Scoop’ on Twitter has stated that the Blues are looking to push in the coming days towards a deal for Crystal Palace star Michael Olise.

They said: “Chelsea will meet with Michael Olise’s representatives in the coming days with a view to proactively concluding a deal. The London Club are taking aggressive measures to ensure they beat Manchester United to the Frenchman’s signing – their efforts aided by Olise’s pre-existing relationship with Chelsea recruitment specialist Joe Shields.”
