According to <\/span>Nacion Futbol<\/span><\/a>, Chelsea could <\/span>be attempting signing<\/span> West Ham United midfielder Edson Alvarez in the summer transfer window. The former club wanted to sign the player a few years back but couldn\u2019t <\/span>get a deal through<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Edson Alvarez is decently good<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Edson Alvarez<\/a> came into the limelight during his stint at Ajax<\/a> and <\/span>made a switch<\/span> to West Ham United in the summer of 2023. Since then, he has been a decent performer and is an integral part of Graham Potter\u2019s squad.<\/span><\/p>\n

Alvarez has been a bit inconsistent this season apart from his team\u2019s struggles. He has one assist in 26 games so far. He <\/span>is averaging<\/span> 2 tackles, 0.7 interceptions, and 1.5 clearances per game (stats via <\/span>whoscored<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mexican midfielder is better known for his defensive traits in the middle of the park. <\/span>He <\/span>has the ability to<\/span> control the tempo of the game and retain possession. He is strong in aerial duels and likes to shoot from a <\/span>range<\/span> whenever possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Is Edson Alvarez good enough for Chelsea?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Chelsea wanted to sign Edson Alvarez before he moved to West Ham United. However, they might make a move for him again in the summer. <\/span>However, they<\/span> will need to offer a lucrative offer since the player is a key member of the Hammers\u2019 squad.<\/span><\/p>\n

From the Blues\u2019 point of view, it\u2019s strange that they want Alvarez at their disposal. <\/span>The player has been a bit inconsistent and might struggle to make impact at Stamford Bridge<\/span>. Though they<\/span> are also chances that he might be able to do better around quality players.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chelsea have a solid pairing of Moises Caicedo<\/a> and Enzo Fernandez in the midfield. Hence, Alvarez might not find himself starting regularly even if he arrives. Moreover, he is already 28, <\/span>which means<\/span> he can\u2019t be a long-term solution for the club.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
