CHELSEA WANT TO BUY IVAN RAKITIC, TO REPLACE CESC FABREGAS.

Chelsea are still trying to buy a replacement for the Spaniard Cesc Fabregas who joined up with Monaco in the January transfer window. Chelsea had tried to buy either of them Leonardo Paredes , or Nicola Barella.. But as Chelsea had failed in their attempt to convince these footballers to join up with Chelsea, they are now looking at buying the Croatian midfielder Ivan Rakitic from the Spanish giants Barcelona. Now Barcelona have gone and brought the young and highly talented young Dutch footballer Frenkie De Jong, for a huge sum of 75, seventy five million pounds. Now Frenkie De Jong will only arrive at Barcelona during the summer transfer window, so the sale of Ivan Rakitic , would help release of valuable weekly salary money.
