Chelsea are preparing a move for Gleison Bremer this summer, with Italian outlet Calciomercato — relayed by Caught Offside — reporting that Juventus could be tempted to sell the centre-back for a fee in the region of £60 million.
CHELSEA’s search for defensive reinforcements has intensified as the club continues to reshape its squad for the long term. The Blues pushed hard to sign young French defender Jeremy Jacquet in the final days of the January window, only for the teenager to choose a move to Liverpool at the end of the season.
Bremer, 28, has been one of Serie A’s most consistent and physically dominant defenders over the past few years. His performances for Juventus — marked by strong aerial ability, aggressive positioning, and reliability in one-on-one situations — have made him a key figure in Luciano Spalletti’s back line.
Despite this, Juventus are expected to entertain offers for several high-value players this summer as they reshape their squad and assess financial conditions.
CHELSEA view Bremer as an ideal fit for Liam Rosenior’s defensive rebuild, offering Premier League-ready attributes and leadership qualities that would complement the club’s younger centre-back options. With uncertainty surrounding some current defenders and the need for greater stability at the back, Bremer’s profile aligns closely with the club’s recruitment priorities.
No formal offer has been submitted, but Chelsea are said to be evaluating the financial feasibility of a move. Juventus, while not actively pushing for a sale, are believed to be open to negotiations if a bid reaches the £60m threshold, giving the Blues a potential opening ahead of other interested European clubs.
Would Bremer be a good signing for Chelsea?
A move for Bremer would represent a shift in Chelsea’s recent transfer strategy — prioritising an experienced, proven defender rather than another long-term project. It is a decision that makes sense. CHELSEA’s back line has lacked consistency, leadership, and physical presence, and Bremer would address all three issues immediately.
However, the question is one of balance. With significant investment already poured into young defenders, another large outlay — especially for a player approaching his prime years — must be weighed against needs in midfield and attack.
Still, stability at the back is foundational, and Bremer offers exactly that
