Chelsea Join Man United and Tottenham in Race for Brentford’s Yehor Yarmolyuk

Brentford prefer to keep the 21-year-old through January, with a reported valuation near £30m.

Overview

  • TeamTalk’s Dean Jones reports Chelsea have made checks on the Ukraine midfielder, adding to interest from Manchester United and Tottenham.
  • Brentford are described as unwilling to sanction a January sale, with multiple outlets indicating a move is more likely in the summer and potentially in 2026.
  • Yarmolyuk has around 75 appearances for Brentford and is featuring in every game this season after stepping up as a first‑team regular.
  • Reports note Tottenham’s link through Thomas Frank’s prior work with the player at Brentford, which could help their pitch.
  • Coverage frames United’s interest around midfield depth and defensive qualities, while Chelsea’s recruitment model makes his age and profile a reported fit.
