Club World Cup surcharge? GMS: Chelsea bought Gittens for 50 million euros but was rejected, Dortmund wants 70 million

givemesport reported that Chelsea competed for Dortmund striker Beno Gittens, and transfer negotiations continued. Despite the intricate reports about the winger in the past 48 hours, Chelsea has not given up signing Beno Gittens this summer.

After Chelsea's previous fixed transfer fee of 35 million euros was rejected, they proposed a 50 million euro offer without additional terms, but Dortmund refused again. Until Tuesday afternoon, Chelsea tried to discuss additional terms with Dortmund via a direct conference call, but it still had no consent from the other party. Dortmund insists on a transfer fee of 65 million to 70 million euros before Gittens can play the Club World Cup. However, Chelsea is not willing to pay such a high amount. Chelsea internally believe that this pricing is a "Football World Cup surcharge" and they believe that they are fully prepared for the Football World Cup in the forward position.

Therefore, they are willing to continue negotiating Gittens' transfer in the coming days or weeks. The player himself also made it clear that he hoped to join Chelsea and had informed the senior management of Dortmund. Gittens will maintain a professional attitude, but his desire to join the Blues will not change. According to sources, a seven-year contract agreement has been reached between Chelsea, Gittens and its agents, valid until June 2032.

In addition, former Manchester City youth training camp key figure Joe Shields is also currently working at Chelsea, which is seen as one of Gittens's trust guarantees for Chelsea's future planning and development prospects. Sources confirmed that Chelsea plans to restart negotiations with Dortmund in the near future, attempt to reach a new transfer agreement, and may soon make a new offer.
