Chelsea are looking to the future, as they appear to be keen on signing highly rated Uruguayan starlet Juan Cruz Mascia. According to reports in the Daily Mail, the young attacker has been invited to London for talks, in the first official approach for the player.
Chelsea have moved quickly for the young marksman, which is just as well as his goal scoring ability hasn’t gone unnoticed by a host of top clubs from England, Italy and Spain. His current club Miramar are reportedly willing to listen to offers around the million pound mark, which could prove to be a shrewd piece of business from the Blues.
Dubbed the next Diego Forlan, Mascia registered an impressive 6 times for Uruguay in the recent South American Under 17 Championships, where they finished runners up to Brazil.
Mascia is adept with either foot and his tall frame gives him a strong aerial ability. If Chelsea do snare Mascia his adjustment to life in West London will be made all the more easy by his strong grasp of the English language.
It appears Chelsea are on to a winner if they can complete a deal for Miramar’s young star.
