The fierce competition in the attack forced some Chelsea strikers to search for other docks to have more time to play, especially after the FIFA Club World Cup 2025.
After Chelsea beat PSG in the 2025 Club World Cup final, there was a very clear truth: the competition between strikers at the Blues was too fierce. Nicolas Jackson did not play a minute in the final. The Senegal striker is attracting attention from both Aston Villa and MU.
Meanwhile, another young star, Marc Gui, only played exactly 39 minutes in the US tournament. The 19 -year -old signed a contract with Chelsea from Barca last summer was extremely disappointed because he did not play regularly for the Stamford Bridge team.
According to The Athletic, the former young Barca star expressed his desire to leave immediately after the Club World Cup 2025 closed to have the opportunity to play more. Currently, Ipswich pays great attention to Guiu. However, the Spanish player is not interested in joining the team playing in the UK first.
Due to not having much time to play at the club, Guiu was eliminated from the U19 Spain to attend the European Championship. Now, with the appearance of Jamie Gittens, the competition in the position in the Chelsea attack becomes even more fierce than ever. And, because Guiu is at the end of the competitive table (where Joao Pedro, Colro, Nicolas Jackson, Christopher Nkunku, Liam Delap …), leaving Stamford Bridge will be a wise step of this 19 -year -old striker.
In the entire 2024/25 season, Guiu only played 16 matches and scored 6 goals. All his goals took place at the Conference League, the tournament that Chelsea had won. Obviously, Guiu is capable of scoring. But to do that, he needed to play. That means he has to leave in the summer of 2025.
