Chelsea are interested in Sporting's centre-back Usman Diomande, but according to Caught Offside, Crystal Palace could prevent the Blues from completing the transfer.
Idman.Biz reports that the 22-year-old footballer has a release clause of 80 million euros in his contract.
This figure may deter Crystal Palace, but it may not be a major problem for Chelsea. The Blues are reportedly considering Diomande as a potential replacement for Mark Guehi, whose contract expires in the summer of 2026.
This season, Diomande has made 11 appearances in all competitions and has not scored a goal. His contract with the club runs until the summer of 2027. According to Transfermarkt, the player's market value is 45 million euros.
