Como pursues loan deal for Chelsea's Liam Delap
Summary

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.
