'Jackson upgrade': Chelsea urged to sign Liam Delap
Former England manager Harry Redknapp believes Chelsea would be wise to sign Ipswich striker Liam Delap, suggesting he could be an upgrade on Nicolas Jackson.
Redknapp stated that signing Delap would give Chelsea a valuable option to change their approach if things aren't going well in games.
He said: "I would say Delap is an upgrade on Nicolas Jackson. Signing Delap would at least give Chelsea that option of switching it round if things aren’t going well for them in games.""
Delap's £30m price tag, triggered by Ipswich's relegation release clause, has attracted interest from top Premier League clubs.
Chelsea have been chasing Delap but now face significant competition from Manchester United, who have made him their top attacking target.
Despite Ipswich's struggles, Delap has impressed with 12 goals and 2 assists, making him an attractive prospect for clubs looking to bolster their attack.
