Chelsea fans react to reported interest in Barcelona misfit Miralem Pjanic

Chelsea are in the mix to sign Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic during the summer transfer window, according to Spanish outlet Sport.

Pjanic arrived at the Nou Camp in 2020 but he’s failed to make an impact. He has started just six games in the league this season, with Ronald Koeman seemingly not a huge fan.

The report claims that Chelsea and Inter have already asked about the midfielder’s services.

The Blues were interested in the player last summer when Frank Lampard was in charge at Stamford Bridge.

Pjanic caught the eye during his time with Juventus, scoring three goals and registering eight assists during 2019/10, despite operating as a holding midfielder.

The current campaign has proved a real struggle for the 31-year-old midfield warrior. He’s played just 599 minutes in La Liga and hasn’t registered a goal contribution.

Pjanic earns £155,000-a-week with Barcelona and that salary should be more than affordable for Chelsea.

Following the latest reports, supporters have been reacting on Twitter to the news. Here is what they had to say regarding the reported interest in Pjanic.
