Italian medias (El Tempo) claim that Chelsea is interested by Candreva (Lazio Rome).

Conte would want to bring him to Chelsea this summer.

Chelsea will have to put between 40-45 M€ to get him.

Thoughts?

 

My opinion: Put that much money to a 29 yrs old player wouldn't be a good idea..

 

 

I don't think he's worth it, especially when we have very good players on the wings such as Hazard, Willian and Pedro, then we have Kenedy who is a future star.

I would rather see $30m spent on a quality cm

Candreva has excellent skills, I say this as a Lazio fan. Currently this season he's not performing as we expected but the entire team is having a low quality trend. Between Lazio fans the common idea is he's distracted and want to leave, but our chairman requires high bids to let him go.

40m - 45m? He's 28 and in 4 days turning to 29. 

 

He is good player but isn't worth this money, we have better options. (Traore, Musonda)

This story is going on at Eurosport.

Cam only assume that Pedro would be leaving if we sign this fella, can't see Willian or Hazard going.

He's another Cuadrado and Salah. But probably even worse. Won't make it in England.

He's days away from 29, daft spending that much on him. Goes against our transfer strategy of recent years too

Not African enough eh....

We should try and sign Hakuna Matata instead.

I'd have no worries about that signing. 

He's a very good player but like you guys I'm a bit worried about his age and ability to adapt to the league, depends on what the fee is.

I have seen too little of him but if he is smart he can adapt. Conte is able speak to him in his native language which seems to be very important.

Boy do I hope Conte can bring in some Italian grinta.

His agent says he is 80% staying at Inter. Refreshingly honest.

Too old...next

Not really the age profile of player we usually spend big on. 

Maybe if psg sign Sanchez, and/or neymar, then they might be looking to sell lucas on the cheap. He could be worth a punt. 

Age 30+. We dont even offer contracts more than a year to guys at that age. SO better forget signing them, and that too for huge fees.

I'd rather pay 30m+ for Sergi Roberto

pay the man he's a fine talent...not many wops want to play in the prem for some reason though
