Chelsea is reportedly planning to beat Arsenal in the race to sign Amadou Onana this month, and they have a strategic plan to secure the deal.
Onana has been recognised as one of the standout players in his position in the Premier League for some time. The Belgian’s combative style has led to suggestions that he could be a potential replacement for Thomas Partey at Arsenal.
However, Chelsea has also expressed interest in acquiring Onana, and they are said to have formulated a plan to ensure his signature.
In recent months, Mauricio Pochettino’s side has received interest in Conor Gallagher, who has been performing well for them. Now, according to Express Sport, Chelsea is open to selling Gallagher and intends to utilise the funds from his sale to secure the signing of Onana from Everton, potentially beating Arsenal to the deal.
This move could materialise in the current transfer window, as Chelsea anticipates Gallagher’s departure. While Arsenal aims to pursue Onana in the summer, Chelsea hopes to gain an advantage by making a move for him sooner.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Onana is a good player and will definitely add value to our squad if he makes the move in the summer.
However, if he is looking to move this month, we could miss out on adding him to our group.

I dont see Onana, who is combative certainly, but who lacks inate creative passing ability, in the mould of sadly injury prone PARTEY, AS BEING OF INTEREST TO US AT ALL.
I think his is just another name in the perenniel guessing game that media and fans trot out so easily.
I SEE LITTLE TO NO realistic chance of us being seruously interested in him at all.
We are in any case taking about the summer coming and NOT this month.
It ought , by now, to be obvious to all (though sadly, it escapes tth attention of the many fantasists who use JA) that NO Prem club at all, is likely to import ANY hugely costly player this month , as so manay clubs are terrified of FFP sanctions.
And we are, apparently , also in this group of clubs running scared.
REALITY!
I’m ok with that.
He isn’t the answer by a long way.
Sorry, i don’t get the hype about this guy. Powerful yes, but that’s it. We already have a better version of him in Rice! intelligence is all we need, power should only be a bonus. Armchair managers ought to know that..
You’re clueless, I must say or you are just talking without ever having watched Onana. You would probably hold the same view on Patrick Viera. Rice is a highly competitive, commendable work-horse’. Natural skill is not one of his strong points. Onana has that and can actually take long shots at goal.
The past three transfer windows have each set new premier league spending records with the usual wannabe leading the charge.
There is a report out Chelsea and Arsenal amongst the top ten worst clubs at transfer, this does not look good.
Charges now hangs over Forest and Everton at present for alleged breaches or over indulgences.
West Ham loan signing of Kelvin Phillips from the champions maybe the only notable premier league deal this far.
But a record of over some £275 mill was spent on transfer deadlines day last time out, that’s an indication that although things are quite on the transfer front just now any game could play come Wednesday.
Having watched him on numerous occasions I have come to the conclusion that he is not the top quality central midfielder we need to replace Partey.
