Chelsea player with modest transfer fee seen as a potential superstar by the club | OneFootball

Chelsea officials have spent the last couple of days sending out reports to the media outlets trying to defend their lack of transfer activity in January.

The squad still needs a new spine added to it, it needs a new goalkeeper, a dominant centre back, a physical defensive midfielder, a striker, and even a goal-scoring winger. All of that work to do even after the new owners have had five transfer windows so far and promised a squad rebuild within four windows. That has not happened in my opinion.

EXCLUSIVE! The SIXTEEN players Chelsea made attempts on trying to sign in January but failed!

So January was a chance to at least address some of these positions, but they did not even address one. And fans are unhappy, and you get a sense that the club are feeling this and are therefore trying to makes excuses or provide reasoning for what they have done in a big article from The Athletic today.

They are also claiming that Jadon Sancho is seen as a potential superstar by Chelsea.

The report says that Chelsea still view Jadon Sancho as a potential superstar, and the relatively modest transfer fee limits the downside.

London is Blue Podcast give the transfer window a VERY bad review.

“Our sporting structure has a lot of egg on their face right now. It’s bad business across the board here. I mean, you bought players only to loan them immediately,” Presenter Nick Verlaney said.

You’re bringing back players who should have been with the squad all along. It looks like a lot of mismanagement all around. And if you ask me right now if Chelsea have a better squad for the second half of the season than they had for the first half – I think the answer is unequivocally: ‘no’.”

Meanwhile, Chelsea’s only incoming new signing for January was finally announced by the club late yesterday afternoon!
