Chelsea have been told by former player Frank Lebouef they should sign Granit Xhaka this summer to complement Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo in midfield.
Xhaka left the Emirates for Germany last year and enjoyed a superb season playing under Xabi Alonso, winning the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal and only losing one game in the process.
He has really become the heartbeat of that Bayer side and also the heartbeat of the Swiss National side – a far cry from the player that was so inconsistent at Arsenal during his 300 games for the club.
Now Leboeuf feels the 31-year-old would be the perfect addition to the Chelsea midfield: Frank Leboeuf told BoyleSports who offer the latest Premier League betting: I’m telling you the one who Chelsea should sign is Granit Xhaka. He’s so impressive and I think Chelsea should have signed him when he left Arsenal.
He was phenomenal for Switzerland at the EUROs and he was also the Player of the Season for Leverkusen – he suits Chelsea so well, particularly in midfield with Enzo and Caicedo. He could be the missing piece of the puzzle for them’
Since Xhaka left Arsenal – he has really stepped up his game and looks world class everytime that he steps onto that pitch – but even though he would be better than what the Blues currently have – he is too old for their future plan
The CHELSEA board like to sign players that will make money over the next few seasons – Xhaka will not do that – so even though he could be a great signing for Chelsea – this is a move that will not happen guys.
