Chelsea stars would be ideal signings for Manchester United
With their Premier League future in the air, the Chelsea players must be feeling extremely uneasy.
The news that Russian-born owner Roman Abramovich has returned his pledge to pay £1.6 billion in debt There has been much debate as to whether this development would prevent Chelsea from becoming a member of the Premier League next season.
That little mystery aside, Chelsea's current situation certainly represents a golden opportunity for other clubs to capitalize on.
Many of the Blues First Team will leave Stamford Bridge this summer, including Antonio Rüdiger and Andreas Christensen.
César Azpilicueta, Marcos Alonso and Jorginho are among the other players who have been targeted to go elsewhere.
Teams across Europe will be watching closely what is happening at Chelsea to select their best players should the unthinkable happen.
Manchester United should certainly watch closely as Chelsea's squad includes numerous players who would make their starting XI.
Reece James, Ben Chilwell and Mason Mount are ideal targets to solve problem areas in the United team.
James' brilliant performance at Old Trafford last Thursday showed the huge difference he could make for United.
If the 22-year-old were forced to go elsewhere this summer, his Premier League options would be limited despite his immense ability.
Liverpool are unlikely to sign for James as they have Trent Alexander-Arnold while City have a multitude of full-backs.
It seems unlikely James will cross London to join Arsenal or Tottenham Hotspur, leaving United as the most likely option in the English top flight.
Chilwell and Mount would also be great signings for United giving them upgrades to current options at their respective positions.
All three players are familiar with the Premier League which would allow them to work alongside United.
If Chelsea cannot take their place in next season's Premier League, United would be wise to sign the trio.
