After a successful season with the Conference League title and a Champions League ticket, Chelsea was "pumped with money" for transfer activities.

One of Chelsea's priorities is a winger. The specific face that the Stamford Bridge team mentioned is Nico Williams.

Chelsea have returned Jadon Sancho to MU, while Noni Madueke and Christopher Nkunku have both been put on the market.

Therefore, coach Enzo Maresca needs more quality players to increase the attacking power on the flanks.

Previously, Chelsea beat MU to sign Liam Delap. The English player will take on the role of “number 9”.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea and Arsenal are currently the two teams showing the most interest in Nico Williams .

Arsenal spent a year pursuing Nico Williams, a player Mikel Arteta is a big fan of.

“Arteta is obsessed with Nico. Arsenal wanted him since last summer,” expert Romano told DAZN.

“Chelsea and Arsenal are both determined to sign the Spanish winger,” said Romano.

Nico Williams just had a great match in the UEFA Nations League semi-finals, with the opening goal helping Spain beat France 5-4 , reaching the final against Portugal.

The Basque player's performance has made two London clubs try to transfer him.

Williams' contract with Bilbao has a €58m (around £50m) release clause and the 22-year-old wants to focus on the Nations League final before deciding his future.

Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich and Man City have all been linked with Nico Williams in recent weeks, but only Chelsea and Arsenal have made formal enquiries with Bilbao.
