According to a report from German news outlet Fussball Daten, Chelsea is interested in Bayern Munich playmaker Lennart Karl. The club will face competition from Manchester City and Arsenal for the young German player.
Karl’s Impressive Form In German Football
This season, Karl has established himself as a regular starter for Bayern and has delivered several noteworthy performances in the Bundesliga. He has scored seven goals and provided three assists in 29 matches across all competitions this season.
The 17-year-old has shown potential in attack, averaging 3.20 shots per 90 minutes in the Bundesliga with 46.4% of those shots being on target (stats via fbref.com).
Karl is contracted with Bayern until the summer of 2028, making it challenging for Chelsea to acquire him at a lower price at the end of this season.
