Chelsea targets Pep Chavarría: negotiations progress with Rayo Vallecano
According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea is in negotiations with Rayo Vallecano to sign left-back Pep Chavarría. The player has agreed on personal terms with the London club.
Negotiations between Chelsea and Rayo Vallecano for Pep Chavarría are underway, as reported by Fabrizio Romano. The 28-year-old Spanish left-back has caught the attention of the London club, which is looking to strengthen its squad with a specialist in the position.
Chavarría, whose market value is €10 million and whose contract with Rayo Vallecano runs until June 30, 2030, has shown his willingness to join Chelsea and play under Xabi Alonso. According to Ben Jacobs, talks have progressed, and the player is close to agreeing terms with the English club.
Chavarría's arrival could mean a significant boost for Chelsea, which has been searching for left-back and wing-back options. With interest in players like Jorrel Hato, Marco Palestra, and Valentin Barco, Chavarría's incorporation could provide experience and solidity to the team.
While personal terms have been agreed, there is still a need to reach a financial agreement between the clubs to finalize the deal. Multiple sources, including Matteo Moretto, confirm that negotiations are advancing, but the transfer has not yet been completed.
