They are preparing a \u20ac38 million offer to prise him away from the Italian outfit, with growing concern at Bologna over the Premier League giants\u2019 increasing interest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rowe, who joined Bologna from Marseille last summer, has had quite an impact at the Italian club. He has been involved in 40 matches for his new club and has contributed towards 11 goals. While he prefers playing on the left flank, the 23-year-old is equally effective on both sides.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">His impressive performances and massive potential have resulted in a lot of interest. Chelsea had their scouts keeping a close eye on him last month, and they are now ready to raid Bologna for the English winger.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Want more CaughtOffside coverage?

The Blues are preparing a <span>\u20ac38 million offer, which could tempt the Serie A outfit. The only thing coming in their way is that they might not have Champions League football next season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If Rowe decides to move on, he could look to join a club that can offer Champions League football. The Blues are not in the best financial position, and with Alejandro Garnacho, Jamie Gittens, and Pedro Neto already capable of featuring on the left flank, they may need to offload one of them before pushing ahead with the move.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea are preparing a \u20ac38 million offer to sign Bologna attacking sensation\u00a0Jonathan Rowe after scouting&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6789,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6788","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chelsea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6788","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6788"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6788\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6789"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6788"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6788"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6788"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
