The need for a left-back at Chelsea has been a key issue during Mauricio Pochettino’s tenure, and it may be one of the biggest concerns for the Blues manager.
With both Ben Chilwell and Marc Cucurella battling injuries, they have had to forfeit some crucial parts of the campaign plagued with fitness issues.
One of Chelsea’s transfer targets who has been in their books for the summer transfer window is ready to make a decision on his future this week.
Media reports predict the Premier League side could put forward Cucurella, who has been offered to various clubs as shared by one of our source.
Simon Phillips, the journalist, has already revealed that Chelsea are looking at Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich to do the left-back job highlighting their willingness to address the unknown.
And with Davies currently linked with a transfer away from Bayern Munich, a decision on his future at Allianz Arena is coming up. Florian Plettenberg, a journalist, asserts that Bayern is expecting the player to declare his next move pretty soon since his current deal ends in 2025.

What is the scenario regarding Davies to Chelsea?
Real Madrid and Chelsea might want to pursue the transfer of him now, before he might leave without any fee at all next summer.
If Chelsea decides to go for Davies, he will be a step-forward past the weak positions that both Cucurella and Chilwell are filling, taking his exceptional speed and attacking attributes into account.
In general, he is one of the best attacking full-backs globally because he is amazingly fast and widely known as one of the fastest player in the world.
Besides, his transfer to Chelsea will basically strengthen the full back position and create an offensive opportunity for Chelsea to attack the enemies’ defenses.
All in all, recruiting Davies is a very prospective step for Chelsea’s defense, as it may also bring extra punch to the team’s attacking play. While keeping their intention to improve the club’s squad, aiming at a player with the caliber of Davies is a clear reflection of the attitude of Chelsea to win trophies both in domestic and European competitions.
