Ex-Blue Poyet: 'I don't know why Chelsea and Barca constantly trying to steal players from each other'

"Chelsea's level is not clear yet, I think they'll sign more players," former Chelsea player and current Greece national team manager Gus Poyet said.

"Last year I was sure Chelsea would challenge after winning the Champions League and signing Lukaku, but it's too early to say. They need something extra, I don't think they're as good as they were 2 years ago.

"I do not know why this summer Chelsea and Barcelona are constantly trying to sign the same players and steal from each other. They are not similar clubs, but they are trying to buy the exact same players.”

"Aubameyang would be perfect for Chelsea. He looks happy and back to his best scoring. I can't see the Aubameyang signing happening but I would be happily surprised."

Barcelona beat Chelsea for Kounde and Raphinha. They also signed Chelsea contract rebel Christensen and renewed Ousmane Dembele's deal, blocking his potential move to the Bridge.

Now the Blues are reportedly interested in signing De Jong and Aubameyang, while Barca are keen on landing Alonso.
