Manchester City are ‘in talks with’ rising star striker and more transfer rumours

Manchester City are reportedly in talks to sign Chelsea youngster Jude Soonsup-Bell, according to reliable Evening Standard journalist Nizaar Kinsella.

The Premier League champions are trying their very best to build one of the best academy’s in world football. City signed Everton’s highly rated Scottish youngster Emilio Lawrence yesterday, and now have their sights on a Chelsea starlet.

Jude Soonsup-Bell is one of the most highly rated youngsters in the Chelsea academy, and is admired internally at Chelsea. Soonsup-Bell is tipped to push into the first-team, but Manchester City have other ideas.

Reports are suggesting Manchester City have opened talks to sign the Chelsea youth player.

According to Standard Sport, Manchester City have opened talks to sign Chelsea academy star Jude Soonsup-Bell. City are building for the future, and they want the Chelsea striker to be part of that future.

Chelsea signed Jude Soonsup-Bell from Swindon Youth in 2015, and he has turned into one of the most highly rated players in their academy ever since. With 28 goals and 7 assists in 77 games, the player is proving his worth in the academy.

Elsewhere, Manchester City are reportedly planning to make offers of €120m (£105m) for AC Milan forward Rafael Leao in January.

The 23-year-old has elevated his game to new heights with the Rossoneri over the last 18 months, and he is set to become one of the most sought-after forwards in Europe when the transfer window re-opens.

It’s been claimed that Milan will consider cashing in on the forward if a ‘super offer’ is received, as they do not want to lose another valuable star on a free transfer.
