Fermín López (Barcelona)
August 2025
Chelsea have submitted a £37m bid for Barcelona’s Fermín López, hoping to land the 22-year-old midfielder before the window shuts. Barça are not actively selling, leaving the player’s decision pivotal in whether the deal materializes. López, struggling for minutes at Barça, could push for a Stamford Bridge move. Chelsea view him as a versatile midfield addition after missing out on Xavi Simons to Spurs. The next few days will be decisive with deadline pressure mounting.
