Premier League charges shouldn't put Man City off from raiding Chelsea for Cancelo replacement

According to reports, Manchester City are interested in Chelsea’s left-back Ben Chilwell. The 26-year-old has been faced with a lot of injury problems in recent times and returned against Fulham last week for his first game since a hamstring injury forced him out of action in November.

He has been an integral part of the Chelsea team with his all-round abilities helping to beat City to the Champions League title in 2021. Marc Cucurella has been filling the left back sport regularly with Chilwell out. However, once the England international is ready to start, he is expected to play in the first eleven as the Spaniard has not looked great in the left-back role.

City’s interest in signing Ben Chilwell comes after Joao Cancelo left on loan to Bayern Munich on deadline day. The Portuguese left the team in search of playing time and amidst uncertainty over Cancelo's future, Pep Guardiola will look at other options available in the market.
