Bright Ede Transfer from Motor Lublin to Chelsea
Chelsea will begin final negotiations with Motor Lublin next week to finalize the transfer terms for Bright Ede. Tomasz Włodarczyk from Meczyki.pl reported that everything is moving towards a successful conclusion. If nothing troubling occurs, the operation will be completed by the end of June. Bright Ede will be loaned to Strasbourg in Ligue 1 after signing with Chelsea.
Bright Ede is expected to join Chelsea, indicating the growing attractiveness of the Polish market to major foreign clubs. The transfer is likely to break the Ekstraklasa transfer record, with a fee exceeding 11 million euros.
Chelsea has begun negotiations for the transfer of 18-year-old Bright Ede from Motor Lublin. An official offer is expected to be made in the coming days, possibly setting a new league record. The transfer fee could exceed 11 million euros, surpassing previous records held by Ante Crnac, Kacper Kozlowski, and Jakub Moder. If the transfer is successful, Ede would be immediately loaned to Strasbourg, a club associated with Chelsea's ownership, in the French league. The negotiations took place in Wroclaw, where representatives of both clubs met during the UEFA Europa Conference League final.
Chelsea, a local and long-standing rival of Arsenal, is reportedly keeping a close watch on Bright Ede, according to Paweł Gołaszewski from the weekly 'Piłka Nożna'. Motor Lublin is open to considering offers worth several million euros but is not in a hurry to sell Ede unless a particularly appealing offer comes along. Ede, an 18-year-old left-footed central defender, transferred to Motor Lublin from Zagłębie Lubin last winter and has since made six appearances, scoring in his debut against Stal Mielec. His contract with Motor Lublin extends until December 31, 2026, which gives the club a strong position in negotiations. Nevertheless, Chelsea continues to closely monitor Ede, potentially ready to make a move if a suitable opportunity presents itself.
