Liam Delap is constantly linked with Chelsea.

Born in 2003, England striker Delap is a "special prospect" expected by Manchester City Youth. The son of Rory Delap, a "human catapult" who played in Stoke City in the past, was called up to the first team stage ahead of the 2020-21 season, raising expectations from many fans and starting his professional career in earnest with his debut in the Carabao Cup match against Bournemouth.
However, it was too much to overcome the first-tier Korean players. He also suffered from persistent injuries during the 2021-22 season. Worse yet, his position competitors Elling Holland and Julián Álvarez have been recruited, narrowing the door.
In the end, he left on loan ahead of the 2022-23 season. His destination seemed to burst his potential by taking the starting opportunity at the same time as his father played Stoke. However, his poor scoring ability disappointed him and eventually left on loan to Preston North End again after an early return.
He needs to gain professional experience through loan from lower league. His poor performance was clearly revealed in the ground. After losing ground at Preston, he was humiliatingly relegated to the reserve team and experienced the difficulties of becoming a professional.
He showed his potential in this season when he left for Hull City on loan. His final record in the 2023-24 season was eight goals and two assists in 32 matches. However, he did not have enough time to win the competition against Hollande, the "World Class" and moved to Ipswich Town before the end of this season. The transfer fee is 15 million pounds (about 27 billion won).
Delap has made a fresh start in the lower-ranked team. He has displayed overwhelming performance. The record so far this season is 29 games, 10 goals and two assists. Although Ipswich is struggling to overcome hardships in the relegation zone, Delap is enjoying his best season personally.
At the same time, Chelsea is attracting attention from the "big club." The media said, "Delab is Chelsea's main target. Chelsea are willing to invest 40 million pounds to 50 million pounds (about 746.933 billion won) on him this summer. As of now, Chelsea is the most likely team to recruit him."
