A new striker target for Chelsea! Blues weighing up move for €30m-rated Hoffenheim & Germany hitman Maximilian Beier

According to <a href="https://x.com/Plettigoal/status/1804406261800223094" target="_blank">Florian Plettenberg</a>, the Blues have shown interest in Hoffenheim forward Beier, who netted 16 goals and provided three assists in 33 Bundesliga appearances in the 2023-24 season and is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/euro-2024-every-team-potential-breakout-star/blt400bb1f074e43ae2" target="_blank">in Germany's Euro 2024 squad</a>. The Premier League giants have reportedly enquired with the German side about the availability of their star forward.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The 21-year-old, who has a release clause of €30m (£25m/$32m) in his existing contract, has attracted interest from several other English clubs and newly crowned German champions Bayer Leverkusen. The Blues, despite their interest, are not being considered favourites at the moment to land the player this summer.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

With Enzo Maresca replacing Mauricio Pochettino at the helm this season, the west London side are looking to make some changes in their ranks in order to bolster the team ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. Other than Beier, the club also <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/samu-omorodion-chelsea-atletico-madrid-striker/blt1653b0cffe107d93" target="_blank">placed a bid for Atletico Madrid forward Samu Omorodion</a>, however, the Spanish side have reportedly rejected it.

DID YOU KNOW?

Maresca and his men will regroup next month for pre-season as they are all <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/chelsea-pre-season-2024-tour-fixtures-results-tickets-watch/blt0990f1d5d5bc8839#csd64afad34462a50f" target="_blank">set to travel to the US</a> where they are scheduled to face teams like Wrexham, Manchester City and Real Madrid.
