5 transfers that can turn around Chelsea's season

#4 Virgil van Dijk

Van Dijk is expected to leave in the winter transfer window

Considering David Luiz’s drop in form and Antonio Rudiger not reaching his full potential, van Dijk would be a good addition at the back. Chelsea were interested in the Southampton Player of the Year during the summer but the move couldn’t go through.

It is no surprise why the club were interested. Van Dijk, at 6 ft 4 in, has a towering presence and can thus intimidate forwards and be useful in the receiving end of set pieces. Plus this addition would free up Azpilicueta for wing back duties, another area that requires consistency.
