Chelsea and Tottenham make contact for Inter Milan star Andre Onana
According to 90min (h/t Express), Chelsea and Tottenham make contact with Inter Milan for talented goalkeeper Andre Onana.
The summer transfer window is already shaping up to be a busy one for both Tottenham and Chelsea, with both clubs reportedly showing interest in signing the talented Andre Onana from Inter Milan.
The Serie A side are said to be keen to offload the 27-year-old shot-stopper at the end of the season in order to balance their books and acquire new signings. Onana has reportedly been transfer listed and is deemed the ideal candidate to be sold for a significant fee.
Chelsea, who are currently without a manager but with Mauricio Pochettino rumoured to be taking over, have reportedly registered their interest in the Cameroonian international. The Blues are said to be looking for a top-quality goalkeeper to add to their squad, along with a top striker
Onana, who was previously with Ajax, has established himself as one of the top goalkeepers in European football in recent years. He has been a consistent performer for both club and country, and his ability to command his area and make crucial saves has caught the attention of several top clubs.
Meanwhile, Tottenham have also identified Onana as the ideal candidate to succeed club captain Hugo Lloris in north London. The Frenchman has been a stalwart for Spurs over the years, but at 34 years of age, his time at the club is coming to an end.
Onana would bring a wealth of experience and quality to the Tottenham squad, and his signing would be a statement of intent from the North London club. With a new manager set to take over, the acquisition of a top goalkeeper like Onana would provide a solid foundation for the club to build on next season.
Of course, both Chelsea and Tottenham will face competition for Onana’s signature, with several top clubs around Europe reportedly interested in the Cameroonian. However, the prospect of regular first-team football and the chance to join two of the biggest clubs in England could prove to be a tempting proposition for the shot-stopper.
