The Blues were very quiet in January, but are expected to be active in the summer with a number of positions in the squad needing to be addressed.
Chelsea’s squad building has been criticised following the Champions League exit to PSG, and the club face a big summer.
Liam Rosenior on plans for the summer window
The Blues have spent £1.5bn since the Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital takeover in the summer of 2022, with more money certain to be spent this summer.
Despite the vast outlay Chelsea are still lacking in several areas of the squad, whilst their squad depth simply isn’t of the quality required.
The Blues are thought to still be in the market for a centre back, whilst it’s believed they want to add a midfielder and another attacker.
Heavily criticised sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley will lead the recruitment process, and Rosenior revealed he’s excited about detailed conversations he’s had with them.
“We’re having really detailed conversations now about the areas that we want to strengthen,” he said as quoted by The Standard.
“I’ve had great conversations about what I think we need. We’re very aligned, actually, in terms of where we want to strengthen and how we go about that, which is very exciting.
“The most important bit, though, is making sure we get the now right as well.”
Chelsea have already secured two summer signings
Whilst trust in the ownership is at an all time low, the Blues have already secured two summer signings in Geovany Quenda and Emmanuel Emegha.
The duo will join at the end of the season from Sporting Lisbon and Strasbourg respectively, and are expected to go straight into the first team squad to compete for minutes.
