Italian club Como, who are preparing to make their UEFA Champions League debut this season, have taken the first step in transferring Chelsea striker Liam Delap.
According to information from Idman.Biz, citing Fabrizio Romano, the English footballer is a candidate for the central striker position in the Serie A club.
According to the source, after the transfer of defender Trevoh Chalobah from the English club to the Italian club during the current transfer window, very good relations have developed between Como and Chelsea. The 23-year-old striker may leave Chelsea within the next two weeks.
Delap joined Chelsea from Ipswich Town last summer. In the last season of the English Premier League, he played 28 matches, scored one goal and made one assist. It was previously reported that the Londoners were ready to sell Delap for 41-47 million euros.
