Chelsea fans are comparing new signing Marc Guiu to ex-striker Diego Costa after impressing in their 3-0 pre-season friendly win against Club America.
A 2-2 draw against Wrexham and a 4-1 defeat to Scottish Champions Celtic were quickly forgotten thanks in large part to Guiu's performance against the Mexican side.
The 18-year-old who joined the west London club from Barcelona for a reported £5 million netted his first goal for the club with a tidy header, drawing comparisons to fellow Spaniard Costa.
Chelsea are continuously linked with new players seemingly every day having already brought in seven new first-team players and they don't want to stop there.
Chelsea and Marc Guiu starting to look the part under Enzo Maresca
New manager Enzo Maresca really got Chelsea purring in their victory against Club America with Christopher Nkunku and Noni Madueke scoring penalties on either side of Guiu's header.
Fellow new signing Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall received the ball in a wide area before sending in a floating cross directly onto the 18-year-old's forehead.
The striker's physicality and relentless pressing have impressed Chelsea fans and they believe the club may finally have a replacement for Costa following a few high-profile flops.
