June 18, London Football reported that Chelsea is considering signing Brighton striker Joao Pedro for £60 million this summer.

Newcastle also expressed interest in Pedro, but Brighton hoped to sell him at a high price. Previously, Chelsea had spent £30 million to sign Drapp, but they still hope to further strengthen the front line.

Despite interest in Osmeen and Ekitic, the former's high salary requirements make transfers difficult. In addition, Chelsea also negotiated with Frankfurt on Ekitic, but the other party's £85 million asking price complicated the deal.

23-year-old Brazilian striker Joao Pedro made 27 appearances for Brighton last season, scoring 10 goals and contributing 6 assists, attracting the interest of many Premier League clubs.

In addition to Pedro, Chelsea also showed interest in Leipzig's Xavi Simmons. The Dutch international is reportedly likely to leave Leipzig in the coming months.

At the same time, Chelsea is also preparing to submit a new offer to Dortmund and strive to sign winger Gittens. It is reported that Gittens is eager to join Chelsea and has informed Dortmund of his willingness to leave the team.
