  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    The Blues' academy graduate made his senior professional debut last season as he came on as a substitute in their 2-0 win over Tottenham in a Premier League clash in May. The 18-year-old right-back is highly rated at Chelsea and was being considered for a promotion to the first-team ahead of the 2024-25 campaign, but they could now sell him in order to comply with the league's Profit and Sustainability Rules. They are also planning to offload some players from their already bloated 44-member roster.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Per The Independent, Real Madrid and PSG have reportedly shown interest in the youngster and are willing to offer up to €15 million (£12m/$16m) to secure his services. Acheampong is predominantly a right-back but can also play as a central defender. His versatility in the backline is what has caught the attention of the two European giants.
