BBC: Chelsea intercepts Julids United, signs Brighton striker Bonanot on loan

Hupu, August 29th BBC reported that Chelsea signed Brighton striker Bonannott on loan, and he was close to joining Leeds United.

Bonanot was loaned to Leicester City last season, contributing 6 goals and 3 assists in 35 games. Although his performance was remarkable, it failed to prevent the Blue Foxes from relegating to the Championship. There are several members of Chelsea's top executives who are very familiar with Bonanot, including co-sports director Winstanley and global signing director Jewell, who have worked in Brighton.

Meanwhile, another striker of Brighton, Julio Enciso, is also close to transfer to Chelsea's partner club Strasbourg for £13.8 million, and plans to play for one year in France before returning to Chelsea. The Blues continue to seek reinforcement of the offensive end this summer, and they have paid attention to Manchester United's Garnacho and Leipzig midfielder Xavi Simmons.

Chelsea is still actively selling players in the transfer market, Jackson is being chased by Serie A, Bundesliga and Premier League clubs, and Sterling, Chilville, DiSassi and young player George may also leave the team before the transfer window is closed on September 1.
