#8 Marcos Alonso (Fiorentina to Chelsea)
One of the two deadline day signings made by Chelsea, Marcos Alonso was brought in by Antonio Conte as defensive cover. Capable of playing left-back or midfield, Alonso apparently picked Chelsea over Barcelona. The Premier League club though have paid well over his market value.

Fiorentina | Chelsea | 9.8 | 26.5 | 16.7 |
#7 David Luiz (PSG to Chelsea)
Another deadline day signing by Chelsea, David Luiz made a surprising return to London after a successful spell at Ligue 1 champions PSG. However, David Luiz just does not seem to be a Conte type of player and the term "panic buy" might just suit this transfer considering Chelsea paid well over his market value.
Selling Club | Buying club | Estimated value (€) | Actual transfer Value (€) | Gap (€) |
PSG | Chelsea | 20.2 | 40.0 | 19.8 |
