Chelsea could wait until next summer to pursue a move for yet another young talent, as journalist Ben Jacobs provides some insight to GIVEMESPORT into the competition they will face for his signature.

It certainly wouldn't be the first young star Chelsea have looked to sign in recent years.

Since Todd Boehly took ownership of the Blues, he's dipped into his pocket to sign a host of talents from around the world. The likes of Angelo Gabriel, Romeo Lavia, Diego Moreira, Enzo Fernandez, Andrey Santos, and many more, have all been signed during the Boehly era. During the most recent summer transfer window alone, Chelsea spent a hefty amount, keeping their focus on U21 stars despite a disappointing season in the Premier League.

Even if the poor results continue on the pitch, it seems that Boehly and his recruitment team won't steer away from their philosophy. As a fanbase, Chelsea supporters will have to remain patient as their new signings adapt to a new club and go through their development.

Let's see what happens in January for Chelsea with £26m star

It was reported during the summer transfer window that Chelsea had made an offer of around £26m to sign Club Brugge youngster Antonio Nusa. Sources later confirmed to GIVEMESPORT that Chelsea were in advanced talks to secure his signature, but a move failed to materialise.

Would Antonio Nusa become a first-team player at Chelsea?

As we've seen with a lot of Chelsea's new signings, many arrived at the club before being sent out on loan. Some, of course, are involved in the first-team, but others are away from the club or working with the youth setup. Nusa, however, is still only 18 years old, so you'd imagine the chances of him breaking straight into Mauricio Pochettino's starting XI, if he was to sign, are pretty slim. Just like their other additions, Nusa will need time.
