Goal.com recently reported that Chelsea is interested in signing Nottingham Forest defender Murillo. The club will be competing with Manchester United for the Brazilian player’s signature next summer.
Murillo’s Strong Performance in English Football
Murillo has been performing well this season at Nottingham Forest, demonstrating solid defensive skills. The 23-year-old has scored two goals in 26 matches across all competitions for the club.
Considered one of the top centre-backs in English football, Chelsea would benefit from acquiring him next summer. His contract with Nottingham runs until the summer of 2029, making it likely that Chelsea may face challenges in signing him at a lower price this year.
