Joe Cole only wants the best for Chelsea, but we’re not sure about his latest suggestion.
He’s told Chelsea they should sign an unwanted Man U player – and it’s a suggestion not everyone would be on board with.
Marcus Rashford has had a troubled few years, but seemed to be building back to his best on loan at Barcelona. However the signing of Anthony Gordon at the Camp Nou makes it seem unlikely Rashford returns.
Rashford a tempting project – but not for Chelsea
“It’s just a matter of the wages and the valuation. Rashford ticks a lot of boxes, but you don’t want to spend a fortune on him – he’d do a good job for Chelsea. He’s someone Chelsea should inquire about, but it’ll depend on the deal,” Cole said in quotes picked up by the Sun.
We don’t love the idea, frankly. Combining Rashford with Alejandro Garnacho on the wing? What could possibly go wrong.
There’s obviously an awesome player there, but we don’t want to be the ones working to bring it out. We’ve got enough development projects on our hands already.
In other news…
Chelsea are focused on improving in two positions this summer according to a revealing piece by the Athletic published today.
That same piece claims that Chelsea are looking to sign “ready made” players who can contribute straight away rather than just youth talents. Better late than never!
