Como has made an inquiry to loan Chelsea striker Liam Delap for the upcoming season. The Italian club, managed by former Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas, views Delap as a key target following a disappointing debut season at Chelsea. Delap, who joined Chelsea from Ipswich Town for £30m, scored only twice in 41 appearances. Chelsea is willing to consider loan offers, with a purchase option being a possibility. Other clubs, including Everton, Fulham, and Nottingham Forest, have also shown interest in Delap, who Chelsea values at approximately £40m.
