Chelsea has taken notice of a rising star in the football world - Christantus Uche. The midfielder has been making waves at Getafe with his impressive performance, catching the eye of many top clubs. In fact, Chelsea has even made an official enquiry for him.
Uche's journey to Getafe has been an interesting one. He made a move from third-tier Ceuta to Getafe in June for a fee of €500,000. The 21-year-old signed a four-year contract with the club and has wasted no time in establishing himself as a key player in Jose Bordalas' squad. He has started in every match of Getafe's La Liga campaign so far.
According to Spanish publication Relevo, Uche's sudden rise to fame has attracted the attention of top clubs in Europe, with Chelsea being one of them. The report states that Chelsea is closely following Uche's progress and his unique combination of strength and speed would make him a perfect fit for the Premier League. The club didn't want to miss the chance to gather more information about the talented youngster.
Despite the interest from big clubs, Uche remains focused on his current team. He is happy at Getafe and is solely concentrating on helping the team continue their unbeaten streak, with their next game against Valencia. Uche's current contract with Getafe runs until 2028, with the option of an additional year.
Earlier this year, a source revealed that there were many La Liga clubs interested in signing Uche, but Getafe was the perfect fit for him. The club and manager Bordalas have a great understanding, with Uche's abilities complementing the coach's tactics perfectly.
Chelsea has had a busy summer, signing 11 players during a hectic transfer window. However, despite all the changes, the team has displayed a sense of unity that has been lacking in recent years. Even though they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Liverpool, a win against Newcastle this weekend could see them move into the top four of the Premier League.
