Former Barcelona gem Marc Guiu nets first Chelsea goal

Marc Guiu left Barcelona for Chelsea after the Blues paid his release clause, a price of 6 million euros that seems cheap considering his future projection. Although the first feelings are that he will leave on loan to gain experience, Enzo Maresca is giving him a clear starting role in the first pre-season friendlies. He started against Wrexham, against Celtic and against America, victim of his first goal as a Blue.
The former Barcelona man burst towards the near post as Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall raced down the left flank to pounce in front of Angel Malagon and head home from close range for his side's second goal. The first had been scored by Christopher Nkunku from the penalty spot and the 3-0 scoreline, which made it 3-0, fell to Noni Madueke, who also scored from the spot.
The fact that the assist was provided by the former Leicester City man is very good news for the London sidement, who opted for the Spaniard in one of their few market operations that have not made them fear their Financial Fair Play and invested in the Englishman trusting in the criteria of their manager. The Foxes received 35.4 million for his transfer.
Marc Guiu, who also contributed a goal against Wrexham by setting up Nkunku, is doing what he has to do to earn a place in Chelsea, although there is still a month left in the transfer window and Sevilla are pushing for his loan move, as BeSoccer Sevilla has already reported.
