According to a recent report by the Daily Mirror, Bournemouth wing wizard Ryan Fraser is eyeing a summer exit amid recent reports linking him with a move to Chelsea during the summer transfer window. The same source has revealed that the Pensioners will face stiff competition from their London rivals, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur in pursuit of the Aberdeen born star.
The Brilliant Form Of Ryan Fraser This Season
The Cherries playmaker has enjoyed a majestic campaign under Eddie Howe’s tutelage after establishing himself as a regular feature in Bournemouth’s first-team this season. Fraser has managed to find a level of consistency with his performances and has made some match-winning contributions at the Vitality Stadium during this campaign.
The Scottish winger has made 40 appearances for the Cherries this term, registering eight goals while creating 13 assists in multiple competitions. He has also secured seven international caps and one goal for Scotland thus far.
If Fraser manages to keep performing on the pitch at a high level, then there is no doubt that he could be a fantastic acquisition for the Pensioners. He is the type of talent who can thrive under a world-class manager like Maurizio Sarri if given the opportunity to showcase his worth at Stamford Bridge.
What Does The Cherries Winger Offer On The Pitch?
Fraser has a remarkable turn of speed which helps him to be a very productive dribbler with the ball down the flanks. He remains calm under pressure and is not afraid to deliver when his teammates need him the most. The Scottish midfielder has been quite prolific in front of the opposing goal but what has caught the eye is his ability to pick out a final pass.
All in all, Fraser will be a fantastic acquisition for the Pensioners if they manage to evade their impending two-transfer window ban handed by FIFA and land the Cherries star this summer. He will undoubtedly bolster Sarri’s playmaking options significantly at the West London club.
Should Chelsea Make A Move For Him?
Fraser’s addition will not only boost Chelsea’s squad depth but will also provide some healthy competition for the likes of Pedro, Willian, Eden Hazard and Callum Hudson-Odoi. Hence, the Pensioners should try their best to lure the Scottish international to Stamford Bridge in this off-season.
