Delap has a £30m release clause in his contract, and Ipswich's relegation has given Premier League clubs an increased chance of signing the England striker.
MU has been interested in Delap for the past month, but has hesitated and has not made an official offer. The "Red Devils" spending power may be affected by the result of the upcoming Europa League final. If MU cannot win the championship and qualify for the Champions League, their transfer budget may be significantly limited. This also affects the plan to recruit Delap, when the striker expressed his ambition to play for a club in the Champions League next season.
The move opens up an opportunity for Chelsea. The Blues have decided to join the race and are determined to complete the deal to strengthen their attack. Coach Enzo Maresca and his team have a great chance of qualifying for the Champions League next season after finishing 5th in the Premier League table.
If Delap joins Chelsea, he will be reunited with coach Maresca. The two played together in the Manchester City youth team.
If Chelsea succeed in signing Delap, it will be a major blow to MU's ambitions. Coach Ruben Amorim's team is looking for a new striker in this transfer window, but has a limited budget.
Delap scored 12 goals in his first season in the Premier League. The 22-year-old striker showed his sharp scoring ability and good ability under pressure.
