Chelsea told their 17-year-old striker will be better than Nicolas Jackson ‘in two years’
Manchester United and Chelsea are reportedly in serious competition to land Brentford’s rising midfield star Yehor Yarmolyuk, after earlier links with Leeds United during the summer. The 21-year-old Ukrainian has impressed with his defensive work rate, ability to press, and versatility in midfield — capable of slotting in as a number 6, 8 or even helping higher up. Brentford are said to value him around £30 million, and while they’re keen to keep him, they may be open to offers next summer.
United view Yarmolyuk as a potential fix for their midfield issues, and Chelsea are thought to be weighing up a bid. With both clubs eyeing reinforcements, Yarmolyuk could be one of the most talked-about names in the transfer market going into the next window.
