Barcelona’s Marc Guiu is among the strikers being linked with Chelsea proper now and as we reported right here Sunday morning, we are able to affirm too that he’s completely of curiosity to Chelsea proper now and talks are occurring. He’s additionally wished by Bayern Munich, and Barcelona even have a brand new contract supply on the desk for him.
We’re uncertain in the mean time whether or not he might be for the primary group now, or if he would exit on mortgage, however preliminary ideas from SPTC sources is that he would go on mortgage, or stick with Chelsea U21s. The dependable youth insider The Secret Scout has urged he would exit on mortgage, and Matteo Moretto of Relevo has additionally talked about a mortgage to Strasbourg.
He does look superb, and the most important factor for me is he’s the precise striker profile (not expertise and age smart) that we’d like. He’s bodily, tall (6ft 2in at simply 18 means he’ll develop much more and will doubtlessly attain 6ft 3 or 4in), and is a extra traditional-style quantity 9 however with an actual trendy twist. I’ve seen him play a lot of instances and I can say that he’s an thrilling and technically sound striker. I actually like him.
He has plenty of tempo in behind however can do all of it. He can hyperlink, drop in, play off the final man, and as I stated, an important factor he has is bodily presence and peak, he’s a focus. He’s additionally an actual fox within the field and has nice energy on and off the ball, and an unbelievable work price. He can rating targets too – getting 8 in 24 apps for Barcelona B and Barcelona final season which isn’t unhealthy in any respect simply beginning off and on the age of 18.
However as I stated, he’s most likely too uncooked and younger to come back into the primary group this summer season, however I’d completely not rule that out proper now both. He’s clearly a growing striker and has many components of his recreation to work on, however he’s displaying plenty of indicators of with the ability to progress right into a high striker sooner or later. I sense this as one other alternative at simply £5m.
