Ghana back Baba Rahman for Chelsea move

Football fans are concerned that Abdul Baba Rahman might end up in the wilderness if he switches to Chelsea this summer.

With the way Jose Mourinho's side is stockpiling of young players, some fans think Rahman is not ready for a move to the defending champions, despite his impressive performances with the national side and Augsburg.

Baba will now compete for starting berth with Cesar Azpilicueta - who easily usurped Liga BBVA winner and a Champions League finalist Filipe Luis last season.

In AllportsGhana and PulseGhana’s latest survey on facebook, we asked readers whether they thought a move to Chelsea would be good for the Ghana international defender.

The poll received over 25 comments with the vast majority however thinking that a transfer to Stamford Bridge would be a good move for Baba Rahman.

72% respondents backed Baba's move to the West London club, meaning that only 28% of respondents confirmed that they didn’t think a move to Jose Mourinho's side is a good idea.

Just like Michael Essien, Jose Mourinho is understood to be an admirer of the defender.
