New Chelsea owner likely to sanction marquee transfer, with three candidates named in report

Posted by

Whoever becomes the new Chelsea owner is likely to sanction a major ‘marquee’ signing for the Blues this summer.

Three names seem likely candidates to come in, according to Goal, with West Ham’s Declan Rice, Monaco’s Aurelian Tchouameni and Sevilla’s Jules Kounde being on the club’s radar.

Chelsea fans would surely be happy with those players coming in, with Rice and Tchouameni among the finest young midfield players in world football, while Kounde already looks a world class centre-back despite his relative inexperience.

Chelsea will hope to have new owners in charge soon, following the government sanctions on Roman Abramovich.

The Russian oligarch has long invested plenty in quality signings for Chelsea, and one imagines any new owners who come in will also be ready to do their bit to keep the team competitive.

It will be interesting to see which players come in, but one imagines Rice would be the big favourite for most CFC fans.

Kounde could also be a hugely important addition due to Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen being out of contract this summer, leaving a major hole to be filled in defence.

  1. If Chelsea think and caught offside think it will be like the old days perhaps a rethink may be in order. The days of buying trophies are probably over which is good for football.Back to normal for Chelsea ??

    1. If you know football you will understand that spending big is a means of staying competitive, if money could buy trophies Man City and PSG would have won the UCL already.

      It’s about staying competitive! And yes money will be spent.

    2. Buying trophies? Really? Chelsea’s net spending for over 10 yrs not even in PL Top 10! and have been FFP compliant since it was introduced over 15 yrs ago. Get your facts right please.
