Chelsea face heavy competition from Arsenal for Spanish star

Chelsea are keen to sign a highly rated Spanish star this summer. But, they will face heavy competition from their london rivals Arsenal.

Chelsea are keen to add more attacking players this summer. They will part ways with Nkunku and Felix. In addition, Mudryk and Madueke both find their future uncertain at the club. The Blues are keen to sign another striker and winger.

The West London club have wrapped up signing of Liam Delap. But, they can still go after another striker. On the other hand, they have left-winger as top priority. As of now, they have been linked with many top players amongst which one is Spanish youngster.

Arsenal are ready to transform their attack. They have striker and winger as the top priority. The North London giants have been linked with big names like Sesko ans Gyokeres as top striker targets. On the other hand, they have the same target as the Blues when it comes to winger.

Chelsea & Arsenal to go head-to-head in pursuit of Spanish winger

The star in question here is Nico Williams of Athletic Club. He is 22 years old and is regarded as one of the best young players in the world. Williams is wanted by Chelsea who view him as an upgrade on the left flank. But, it will not be easy for them to sign him ahead of Arsenal.

According to Sky Sports, Arsenal are said to spend big in the summer window. Mikel Arteta has already announced that their top priority will be attack. Hence, they can have the upper hand when it comes to convincing Williams.

Williams can also opt to join Arsenal as he can play regularly there. The Gunners have less competition right now in attack as compared to Chelsea. The 22 year old will be an upgrade on both Martinelli and Trossard on the left wing. It will require €60 million for any club to sign Williams as it is his release clause.
