Chelsea to Sell Delap for a Profit

Chelsea striker Liam Delap is on the verge of a transfer to Nottingham Forest. The 23-year-old Englishman's tenure at Stamford Bridge hasn't been particularly successful, with him scoring just one Premier League goal and three across all competitions. Despite this, the London club is set to sell him for a higher fee than they paid for him a year ago. In June 2025, Chelsea paid Ipswich £30 million, activating the release clause in his contract with the "Tractor Boys," while Nottingham Forest will now pay approximately £10 million more.

Delap has already agreed to personal terms with Forest, and is expected to sign a contract until 2031.

Leeds, Everton, and Como also showed interest in the 23-year-old Englishman. However, his priority has always been to remain in the Premier League.
