Elye Wahi is keen to join Chelsea amidst Tottenham Hotspur interest
According to French outlet L’Equipe, talented young striker Elye Wahi is keen on joining Chelsea amidst interest from Tottenham Hotspur.
Elye Wahi’s meteoric rise has captured the attention of several Premier League clubs, including London rivals Chelsea, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur. The 20-year-old striker’s sensational season in Ligue 1, where he found the net 19 times.
However, despite the interest from multiple suitors, Wahi’s heart seems to be set on donning the blue of Chelsea, a decision that has added an intriguing twist to the transfer saga. This means that the Lillywhites stand at a disadvantage.
Elye Wahi‘s future has become a tantalizing puzzle. Montpellier, the French club that nurtured his talents, rejected a substantial offer from Chelsea, reportedly worth €27.5 million. However, the player wants to move to the Blues.
Despite the uncertainties surrounding his immediate playing situation, Wahi is driven by a long-term vision for his career. The talented forward is determined to choose the right project that will enable his continued growth and development as a footballer.
Notably, both Tottenham and Arsenal had shown genuine interest in securing Wahi’s services. However, various factors have complicated the pursuit for these North London clubs, at least as of this moment.

Tottenham would ideally like to sign a young talent like Wahi who seems to have a very high ceiling. However, the move hinges on the future of their talismanic striker, Harry Kane whose plans seem to be unknown.
Wahi not preferring a move to Chelsea might actually be a blessing in disguise for Tottenham. If Kane were to leave, the club need a much more established striker to fill the void and Wahi might just not be an answer.
