Chelsea are on the verge of signing Liam Delap, having booked his medical after sealing personal terms and activating the £30 million release clause in his contract.
The highly-rated striker is now set to complete his move from Ipswich Town, with all key steps of the deal now in motion.
A pivotal moment in the transfer came when Delap held direct talks with Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca, whose influence was instrumental in convincing the 22-year-old to join the project at Stamford Bridge.
Delap, who enjoyed a breakout season on loan at Hull City 2023/2024 season, is seen as a long-term investment to bolster Chelsea’s attacking options with energy, physicality, and Premier League potential.
