  • Chelsea have made a surprise inquiry to Man United about the potential of acquiring Maguire before the transfer window shuts
  • Tuchel is keen to add another Center back to his roster after the arrival of Kalidou Koulibaly.

Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea has reportedly shown interest to sign Man United’s defender Harry Maguire to strengthen their defense.

The Stamford Bridge club is starring in a defensive crisis following the departure of Antonio Rudiger who joined Real Madrid on a free transfer.

Chelsea also lost Andreas Christensen to Barcelona, while Malang Sarr joined AS Monaco on loan until June 2023.

Thomas Tuchel has signed defensive options in Kalidou Koulibaly and Marc Cucurella but the two summer arrival are yet to prove their tactical approach to the game.

Chelsea is also keen to get Wesley Fofana from Leicester but the club insists to keep the player. It is understood that Fofana has asked Brendan Rodgers to exempt him in his third premier league game against Southampton.

Nevertheless, While Wesley Fofana tries to force a move away from the King Power stadium, Thomas Tuchel has enquired about the possible signing of Harry Maguire of Man United according to the Daily Mail’s Sami Mokbel.

Chelsea is keen to counter Manchester United’s interest in Cristian Pulisic for a swap deal with their defender which will see both players moving to either side.

Manchester United is believed to have renewed interests in Antony and PSV’s Cody Gakpo but a mention of pulisic’s name is also considered if the deals Antony and Gakpo fail to go through.

The partnership of Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez in Manchester United’s defense has so far impressed Erik Ten Hag and Maguire is more likely to be coming from the bench.

I take back all my concerns around Fofana’s transfer fee or wages proposed. Just get him in now before Chelsea does something stupid by getting Harry Maguire!! The fact we even enquired about him is a sinful act and one we have to repent to God for the rest of our lives!!

Does Harry Maguire need a lift to Chelsea? I’ll drive up to Manchester and back down to London on my own petrol to make this happen.

Any Chelsea fan seriously trying to convince themselves that Maguire should join because we play a back 3, you genuinely deserve Championship football on 23/24.

Does Chelsea wants Harry Maguire? Not surprised. Always knew he’s a top defender just wasting at Man Utd. Think Chelsea should move quickly before Barcelona hijack the deal.

UTD is the greatest social man. One Casemiro signing and Maguire to Chelsea rumors have cleared glazer out and Brentford talks from the TL. No mention of the incoming Liverpool matches too. It’s like the Trump administration machine
