Chelsea evaluates Ipswich striker Liam Delap for summer transfer

Chelsea is interested in signing striker Liam Delap from Ipswich Town this summer. Delap has been impressive this season, scoring 10 goals despite Ipswich's struggles in the Premier League. The team currently sits 18th in the table and may face relegation. If Ipswich drops to the Championship, it could make it easier for Chelsea to pursue Delap. Manchester United is also eyeing the 22-year-old forward, who previously played for Manchester City. Reports indicate that City has a £40 million buy-back clause for Delap, which may be the asking price for interested clubs. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano mentioned that Delap is on Chelsea's radar. He noted that many Premier League teams looking for a striker are watching him closely, although no formal offers have been made yet. Recently, Delap had a chance to train with the senior England team. He expressed excitement about learning from established players like Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham. He shared that it was a great experience to play with friends and fellow players he has known for years.
