Chelsea Are Set To Rival Manchester United For This La Liga Winger: Good Choice For The Blues? In a recent report , Marca mentioned that Chelsea are set to rival Manchester United for Real Sociedad winger Ander Barrenetxea. It has been revealed that the Blues are in the running to sign the Spanish wide player in this summer transfer window.
Barrenetxea’s Impressive Form In La Liga Barrenetxea has enjoyed a good run of form at the Spanish club as he has put in a run of impressive displays for them in the final third. The 24-year-old has scored four times and earned five assists in 33 matches for Real Sociedad this season across various competitions. The Spanish talent is currently among the most talented wingers in La Liga.
Hence, the Blues would do well to lure him to Stamford Bridge in this summer transfer window. His current contract at Real Sociedad will expire in the summer of 2030, which could make it tough for Chelsea to sign him on a cut-price deal later this year.
