Chelsea plan to offer six-year contract to Maximilian Beier

Chelsea’s are still in the market for a new striker ahead of the 2024/25 campaign and the Blues remain interested in Hoffenheim’s Maximilian Beier.

The German striker had an impressive season last time around in the Bundesliga as he produced 16 goals and three assists across 33 matches. That earned him a place in the German squad for Euro 2024 and it has also caught the attention of several clubs this summer.

Sources have told CaughtOffside that Chelsea remain interested in Beier and have made an opening offer of around €20m to Hoffenheim for their striker. The Bundesliga club have rejected this proposal as they will demand that the 21-year-old’s €30m release clause be matched if they are to part ways with the player.

The West London club have been linked to numerous forwards during the current transfer window so it remains to be seen if they will activate the German star’s clause.

If the English outfit do go this path, the plan is to offer the German forward a six-year contract until 2030.

Beier would be a great signing for Chelsea and the 21-year-old also fits the age profile that the Premier League giants have been recruiting over recent transfer windows.
