#5 Chelsea

Chelsea are having a questionable window
Chelsea are having a questionable window

Chelsea finished 5th in the 2017-18 season after winning the league in the previous season and they might have their work cut out for them in the remaining few days of the summer transfer window. They have made just 2 additions so far -

  1. Jorginho (CDM) (€57M from Napoli)
  2. Rob Green (GK) (Free Transfer from Huddersfield)

With all the uncertainty surrounding the future of Eden Hazard, Willian and Thibaut Courtois, arguably the three best players of the club, Chelsea may be more concerned about keeping their players rather than bringing in new ones.

Even though sacking Conte and bringing in Maurizio Sarri might mean a more dynamic style of play, Chelsea need to retain their best players and plug in holes from last season.

The primary of those spots being a center forward, as Alvaro Moratta proved to be completely ineffective as the primary option for a challenging team.

If the Gonzalo Higuain deal goes through, it might prove to be a good short term fix, and getting Michy Batshuayi back cannot possibly hurt with the choice of front line strikers so threadbare.
