Chelsea target Serge Gnabry has put pen to paper on a new deal with Bayern Munich to end speculation over his future beyond this summer’s transfer window.
The former Arsenal man Gnabry emerged on the radar at Stamford Bridge in recent weeks with Thomas Tuchel handed a setback in pursuit of Leeds United star Raphinha who decided to snub a move to Chelsea in the hopes of signing for Barcelona.

According to a claim from the transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Gnabry will sign extended terms at the Allianz Arenal in the coming week in a deal which will run until June 2026.
Gnabry’s ties to Chelsea’s local rivals Arsenal were understood to have convinced the German attacker to rebuff a potential move to the Bridge despite a drawn out contract standoff with Bayern over a major hike in wages.
The 27-year-old, however, now looks set to stay put with the Bundesliga champions as Chelsea turn to other names in the market after completing the signing of Raheem Sterling from Manchester City.
