According to Nieuwsblad, The Blues have made a bid for the 18-year-old forward and are hoping to get the deal done on deadline day.
With the deadline edging closer and closer, Chelsea will have their work cut out for them if they’re to get a deal over the line.
It is said that the London club are hoping to seal a permanent move for Nusa before immediately sending him back on loan to Club Bugge.
The Norwegian signed for Brugge back in 2021 from Stabaek and has made 45 appearances for the Belgian outfit since.
He scored one goal and registered one assist in his 21 Belgian Pro League appearances last season .
It’s not yet known if Nusa is open to a move to Stamford Bridge, but Brugge are said to be willing to strike up a deal.
Chelsea have already made an astonishing number of signings this summer including big names like Moises Caicedo, Romeo Lavia and Christopher Nkunku.
And yesterday they added another name to their growing list of incomings with the £42.5million signing of Cole Palmer from Manchester City.

Palmer’s addition means that Chelsea owner Todd Boehly has spent over £1BILLION since taking over the club last summer.
Expectations will now be sky high for the West London club after their spending means they must improve on last season’s abysmal 12th place finish.
