Chelsea pursues Monaco's Lamine Camara as Enzo Fernández replacement

Monaco is demanding at least 50 million euros for Camara, who is under contract until June 2029. Last season, Camara played 30 matches, scoring one goal and providing four assists. He also has 30 caps and four goals for Senegal.

While Crystal Palace has made an offer and Liverpool is monitoring the situation, Chelsea has accelerated its efforts, partly due to Fernández's imminent departure. Chelsea's new coach, Xabi Alonso, has inquired about Camara's personality and adaptability. Camara, who is content at Monaco, is reportedly receptive to Chelsea's interest.

Negotiations between Chelsea, Monaco, and Camara's representatives have begun in Monaco, with an agreement potentially reached within 48 hours. Monaco's coach, Filipe Luís, considers Camara an exceptional player and one of the best midfielders globally.
