Chelsea Transfers

Was probably always dumb to expect it, but part of me was definitely thinking we’d have a nice signing wrapped up and announced within 48 hours of the takeover as sort of a statement of intent. Especially after the huge sense of urgency Tuchel was pushing for a couple of weeks ago.

Doesn’t sound like any transfer is particularly close yet. Much of the incoming business we hope to do is probably being hugely complicated by us trying to move players out like Lukaku, Azpi, Alonso etc. 

Will start to get really anxious if nothing happens next week. Especially on the CB front.

Grannie is still handling transfers. You know the cycle. She will try every player plus cash combo first before getting to just cash.

God help us if our front line is Puli lukaku dembele next season. The most misfit, anti football attack force. It would be embarrassing that Puli is the best in that front line.

Dembele is a serious talent, the risk is getting him out on the pitch.

Tuchel has already worked with him before and got the best football out of him so I'm not concerned regarding managing him.

His injury history is the real concern. But in a similar way to Robben back in the day would you rather have half a season of Robben or a full season of SWP?

We supposedly couldn't approach anyone until the takeover was complete, so it shouldn't surprise anyone that no transfers are close to being done.

Wonder what the hold up is with announcing that Christensen is leaving. Barca can’t even announce a free transfer because their finances are so bad?

I was just reading on RedCafe that Barca is €190M short after their new sponsorships to be able to register new players. Until they sell some big names, they are in limbo. Not sure how accurate those numbers are?

I mean, yeah, we couldn’t officially do so. But it would be insane if we weren’t talking to potential signings via back channels and agents. Especially those that are free agents.

That's only Dembele then. Let's see if the rumours are true over the coming days.
