Wilfried Bony can't stop talking about Chelsea at the moment, the Vitesse striker is often speaking to the media about a possible move and recently there's always been a comment about the Premier League club thrown in. Last weekend he was quoted by Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf commenting on reported Chelsea interest "Of course it's nice to hear, Chelsea is a big club, a very nice club. But this is not the right time for me to deal with them. I want to completely focus on the last seven games of the season at Vitesse."
Just a few days later he's done a big interview with Voetbal International and makes no attempt to hide his desire to leave Vitesse and further his career at a bigger club. He's calmed the rhetoric down slightly and rather than trying to suggest half of Europe want him, now he's a little more humble.
Voetbal ask him about his future and where he thinks he may end up and it's clear that Chelsea is what he wants, along with Real Madrid, but that he knows that it would take an awful lot to get there.
"Together with my managers I must make the right choice. I'm honestly still not sure if I'll get to a club of the calibre of Chelsea, Real Madrid or rather the middle teams of Germany or England."
Bony is aware that many people think it's easier to score in the Eredivisie than the top leagues of Europe, but the player thinks this isn't the case and explained that the level of players in Holland is very high and people only need look at the Dutch national team to show that.
Bony has now scored 27 goals in the Dutch league so far this season which sees him as the top scorer. His ability upfront has been the sharp point of a classy Vitesse side, which has also been helped by on loan Chelsea players. The relationship built up with the club would open the contacts if they wanted to sign Bony, but the interest appears to be mainly from him rather than Chelsea.
