Chelsea ready to follow up £140m spending spree on two more big-name transfers this January

Posted by

Chelsea are reportedly ready to keep on spending big this January after already bringing in £140m’s worth of signings.

The Blues bought a host of new players during the summer as the likes of Raheem Sterling, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Wesley Fofana and Marc Cucurella joined the club, while Joao Felix, Mykhaylo Mudryk, Benoit Badiashile and David Datro Fofana have followed them this January.

Chelsea aren’t done yet, however, with manager Graham Potter possibly set to raid his old club Brighton for both Moises Caicedo and Leandro Trossard, according to the Daily Mail.

Caicedo and Trossard have shone for Brighton this term, and are two players Potter will know well from his time in charge of the Seagulls.

Chelsea would surely do well to bring in a top young talent like Caicedo as a long-term replacement for ageing duo Jorginho and N’Golo Kante, both of whom are set to be out of contract at the end of the season.

Trossard, meanwhile, would likely be a useful addition to the CFC attack after a lack of impact from the likes of Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech.
