Josko Gvardiol has dropped a huge transfer hint regarding a potential move to Chelsea in the near future following another dominating display for Croatia at the World Cup. The 20-year-old was the recipient of an attempted transfer swoop by Todd Boehly in the summer for a possible transfer that would see him arrive at Stamford Bridge ahead of the 2022/23 season, but the deal never materialised.
Croatia secured qualification to the World Cup last-16 as Group F runners-up following their goalless draw with Belgium which saw the Red Devils dumped out of the tournament. Gvardiol was immense in the Croatian back line thwarting a number of Belgian attacks which included a last-ditch challenge on Chelsea loanee Romelu Lukaku with minutes to spare.
Following his performances this season with RB Leipzig and now Croatia, it's clear to see why Gvardiol was the recipient of significant interest in the summer. Todd Boehly could produce an incredible transfer swoop of Gvardiol and his team-mate Christopher Nkunku ahead of the 2022/23 season, with the latter already signing a pre-contract, as understood by football.london.
