Wesley Fofana, Max Kilman, Adam Webster and others were names being speculated on Chelsea fan Twitter over the last few days after it was revealed that a Premier League-proven defender was to be targeted alongside a European option.
But, as the Blues did with Romelu Lukaku last summer, on a smaller scale this time, Todd Boehly is looking to replicate that similar route with a certain Dutch international who certainly has unfinished business at Stamford Bridge. Nathan Ake never made himself a mainstay in various Chelsea teams as a certain loan spell which eventually turned permanent on the South Coast at AFC Bournemouth convinced Man City to spend a whooping £40million in the summer transfer window of 2020.
A move that hasn't really worked out for the 27-year-old who has been used as a rotational player in the whole with the other top centre-halves that Pep Guardiola has at his disposal. Therefore, it's no wonder that the current Premier League Champions are up for generating a huge transfer windfall from the sale of both Ake and Raheem Sterling to Chelsea this summer.
