According to 90min, Liam Delap is expected to leave Chelsea, with an asking price of $40.4 million. A loan or a sale with some form of buy-back clause could be an option that would prevent Chelsea from ending its investment in the player prematurely.

According to iNews, one issue for Leeds United, who are among the clubs interested in signing Liam Delap, is that they might need to sell players before spending more money, following their move to sign goalkeeper James Trafford from Manchester City.

The i Paper reports that Chelsea want between €41 million and €46m (£35m to £40m) to sell striker Liam Delap this summer. The publication understands Leeds United are keen to sign Delap ahead of the 2026-27 Premier League season. According to the same outlet, Leeds United are aware of Chelsea’s asking price, as Xabi Alonso’s side look to generate further revenue from selling players. The i Paper also claims that Leeds want Delap to provide competition for Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who scored 14 league goals last term.

Liam Delap's representatives are in talks with several Premier League clubs after Chelsea indicated the striker is one of three forwards who can depart this summer. According to sources, Leeds United, who looked at Delap before his move to Chelsea last summer, have reopened discussions for his signing. The club is described as maintaining a strong interest and has been kept informed of the player’s availability, as they continue to seek a striker.
