In words quoted by CFCDaily on X, Ornstein said:
“They’ve had big financial losses but that was in recent seasons. The word from Stamford Bridge is they are in better shape now and they do not need to sell any of their key players and they do not intend to.
“You will see periphery sales that I’m sure will raise big money again and they WANT to invest in the summer. In attack, in midfield, in defence. I’m not hearing suggestions that they will actually do so in the goalkeeping department as things stand.”
