@DavidOrnstein: EXCL: Chelsea hold talks with reps of Lille striker Jonathan David over potential summer move. 24yo high among multiple #CFC options + contract 2025 so fee likely to be reasonable. No approach to #LOSC yet but good relations between clubs

I don’t know how he performs in Uber Eats, but for Canada — and I’ve closely followed each game since like 2019, David is errr, interesting.
Canada Soccer and our media hypes him up so much because him and Alphonso Davies are the 2 best players in like our entire history.
I’ve seen him play A LOT – he’s decent on the ball, but not fast or strong, not a clinical finisher. Doesn’t have the ability to grab the game by the scruff and influence the game. Link-up play is good, and his movement is top notch. But isn’t really good or excels at one thing.
– I think Lille is a good place for him. Maybe a Brentford, or West Ham too.
But for Chelsea, I rate this move a 6.3/10. Just seems underwhelming for Chelsea, he’s not a top 6 PL striker.
David’s agent has been paying Fabrizio probably large sums of money or a promise of the cut once he gets his big move, hence Fabrizio’s 384729 tweets about him moving every summer since 2021.
But it’s Ornstein with the exclusive 😂😂 oh lord
Chelsea are a joke of a club 🤣😭
This is just embarrassing at this point.
6mo ago we were linked with Osimhen and Toney
Now we can’t even get Duran or Omorodian
