Chelsea striker Marc Guiu is on the verge of joining RB Leipzig, with a medical possibly scheduled for this weekend. This development follows the release of key information from German transfer insider Phillipp Hinze, who elaborated on Guiu's impending transfer, initially reported by Fabrizio Romano.

As Chelsea continues to reshape their squad, having recently parted ways with Liam Delap and Nicolas Jackson, Guiu is now also set to leave after limited appearances during his time at Stamford Bridge. RB Leipzig had been monitoring Guiu prior to his Chelsea move and now view this as an opportunity to integrate a player who aligns with their team dynamics.

Key details include:

• Transfer fee: €16m-17m, including realistic bonuses.
• Potential medical: Expected to take place tomorrow or Monday.

Leipzig is optimistic about Guiu's long-term potential, despite concerns regarding his lack of playing time over the past two years. Chelsea stands to benefit financially from this transfer, as they are projected to earn over €150m from the sales of Guiu, Jackson, and Delap. This reflects effective management by Chelsea's sporting directors as they navigate their roster changes.
