Sources close to Chelsea's 20-year-old defender Josh Achimpong have confirmed increasing interest from several clubs, covering both loan and full purchase options for the young talent.
Earlier in this transfer window, Chelsea management designated the young defender as 'untouchable', banking on his development within the first-team setup. However, this stance could be seriously challenged in the final days of August. Should one of the interested clubs present a substantial financial offer, Chelsea's determination to retain their talented academy graduate will be put to the test.
With a flurry of transfer activity and the need to balance the club's financial figures before the window closes, a generous offer might force Chelsea to reassess their initial plans regarding the player's future.
