Delap info

Phillips reveals and interesting bit of info in the article on his Substack site on Delap.

He says:

“We have some further info to provide on Liam Delap to begin with.

“As reported yesterday, Chelsea are still pushing on Delap and are right there with Manchester United attempting to lure him this summer. Delap will make his final decision after the weekend.

“SPTC sources can confirm that Chelsea definitely held fresh talks with Delap and have scheduled more. One key extra detail from yesterday is that we are now willing to offer a bit more wages than we initially offered to help persuade him.

“The Manchester thing is actually true we have since heard via sources, he does ideally want to live there. But it’s not the be all and end all and he’s been willing and open to speaking with Chelsea and other clubs not in Manchester as well.”
