Chelsea set to land the ‘New Hazard’ within days after sealing the deal for the Belgian playmaker from Lille for an astonishing £32m.
Charly Musonda has decided to snub other Premier league suitors and join Chelsea, following the footsteps of conationals Hazard and Lukaku. The 15 year old has been closely followed by scouts from Arsenal and Manchester City but once again officials at Stamford Bridge have beaten them to the signature.
Charly Musonda, the son of former Zambian international Charles Musonda, plays for the Belgium national youth side. Along with Charly, his two brothers Tika and Lamisha are also set to join the London club this summer. After having already spent close to £80m this summer, Chelsea have shifted their focus to the long term future of the club by showing interest in the Musondas and Barcelona young star Sergi Roberto. Although a deal for the latter seems rather unlikely, the arrival of Musonda shows a clear shift in priorities at the club.
The terms of the contract offered are yet unknown but Charly is certainly a huge prospect and can make it big in the Premier league.
