Chelsea Targeting £12m-rated Eredivisie's Star

Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Ajax's tricky attacker who has been a consistent figure in Frank de Boer’s side for two seasons now, having made 22 Eredivisie appearances so far this term.

A big future in Holland is Ajax’s hope for El Ghazi, although interest has raised across Europe. Young striker’s short career has already seen him earn two senior Holland caps as his profile and potential continues to grow.

Mauricio Pochettino has a long-term project in effect at White Hart Lane and is looking to take the pressure off lone striker Harry Kane with more firepower.

El Ghazi has 10 league goals and two assists for Ajax this season, showing the kind of form that had Chelsea and Manchester United both intrigued during the January transfer window.

Ajax managed to rebuff interest then, but summer approaches are expected for their hot prospect, and Tottenham are apparently ready to make a move.

The report suggests the Dutch club value El Ghazi at £12million, and with Spurs set to secure Champions League football, the proposal may be too good to refuse for the young attacker.
