Aston Villa do not plan to sell Morgan Rogers amid interest in the attacking midfielder, Barcelona remain keen on signing Marcus Rashford from Manchester United and Real Madrid hold talks with Inter Milan right-back Denzel Dumfries<\/p>\n

Chelsea have been dealt a blow at the very beginning of the Xabi Alonso era. It had looked like the club were close to signing a highly-rated winger in this summer transfer window. But now, that is no longer possible. Well, it might be in the future, but most likely for a much larger transfer fee.<\/p>\n

News broke out yesterday that Chelsea\u2019s \u20ac25 million transfer bid for Zadok Yohanna had been accepted by AIK. But that was not the only one that was green lit by the Swedish club.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Chelsea, they have now lost out when it comes to the race to get a deal for Yohanna over the line, even though their bid was one of those that was accepted. Instead, it is Brighton & Hove Albion who have come out on top and succeeded in signing the Nigerian winger ahead of everybody else.<\/p>\n

Brighton & Hove Albion have officially announced the signing of Yohanna from AIK Stockholm. He arrives on a five-year contract until June<\/p>\n

Obviously, Brighton have one of the best records in the Premier League when it comes to developing youngsters. Chelsea will know that well after the amount they have spent on transfer fees over the past four years, signing players from the Seagulls.<\/p>\n

So, it is not hard to understand why Yohanna has chosen the move to Brighton over other clubs. The Seagulls just have a track record of providing the best platform possible to their youngsters and then allowing them to move on when the time is right.<\/p>\n

Yohanna is 18 years of age. That might be exactly what he needs right now. Joining a club like Chelsea probably would not have been the right choice.<\/p>\n

At Chelsea, he would have had to perform from the get-go. Otherwise, there was the possibility that he would get lost in the shuffle. A loan or permanent move to Strasbourg would likely follow. And who knows where his confidence level would be at that point?<\/p>\n

Why Yohanna made the right choice<\/p>\n

Bad moves at this point in a career can derail it completely. So, to be very honest, I feel that Yohanna has made the smarter choice.<\/p>\n
