Chelsea holds talks with Brighton over Danny Welbeck transfer

Chelsea have engaged in positive discussions with Brighton about acquiring striker Danny Welbeck. The 35-year-old, who scored 13 goals last season, has a year left on his contract with Brighton. The club is willing to facilitate his exit for a reasonable fee. Chelsea's interest in Welbeck aligns with their strategy to strengthen the squad with experienced players this summer, having already signed Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa for a record fee. Head coach Xabi Alonso emphasized the need for a well-balanced squad moving forward.
