Chelsea’s summer transfer window is starting to take shape as they aim to improve on last season.
It was a mixed campaign under former manager Mauricio Pochettino, with the Blues looking destined for a bottom-half finish. However, the new year saw things pick up for Chelsea as they reached the Carabao Cup final and the FA Cup semi-finals.
Performances improved in the Premier League too and they would end up finishing sixth with Europa League qualification a real possibility. Unfortunately, Manchester United’s victory over Manchester City in the FA Cup final ensured they would be playing in the second-tier European competition with Chelsea relegated to the Europa Conference League.
Despite this, it came as a surprise when Pochettino mutually parted ways with Chelsea. In his place comes ex-Leicester City head coach and assistant to Pep Guardiola, Enzo Maresca.
The Italian has wasted little time trying to get business done and two names are expected to be departing Stamford Bridge in the near future. Lewis Hall’s loan move to Newcastle United is expected to become permanent soon with £28m coming in for him.
Ian Maatsen is also expected to leave with Aston Villa leading the way to complete a £35m transfer after Borussia Dortmund were priced out of a deal. Football.london has compiled a full list of completed Chelsea deals below that shall be updated throughout the summer.
