Chelsea manager desperately asks Todd Boehly for three signings
Chelsea manager desperately asks Todd Boehly for three signings once Raheem Sterling deal is completed.
The Blues are the only EPL big club yet to sign a single first-team player so far this summer.
Thomas Tuchel has big plans in the transfer window to strengthen his squad after Antonio Rudger and Andrea Christensen exit.
He is in dire need of reinforcements given that rivals Liverpool, Manchester City, Tottenham, and Arsenal have already strengthened significantly.
According to reports, the German wishes to make three signings at center-back alone following the imminent arrival of Sterling
Chelsea manager asks Todd Boehly for three signings
The Telegraph reports that Tuchel is ‘desperate’ for Boehly to fix his defensive crisis this summer if the club is to challenge for silverware.
The report states that Sterling was finalizing his £45m move from the on Friday evening, whilst City defender Nathan Ake has also agreed on personal terms on a return to Stamford Bridge.
The report states that deals for four defenders are on the cards to solve their problem.
Juventus prodigy Matthijs de Ligt and Sevilla star Jules Kounde are on Tuchel’s shortlist as the German looks to bring down the average age of the squad.
However, the club also apparently holds an interest in Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly, whilst Paris Saint-Germain defender Presnel Kimpembe too interests Tuchel having worked with the Frenchman at the Parc des Princes.
But with Koulibaly and Kimpembe likely to cost less than the 23-year-old, Chelsea may opt for another older center-back to join the already aging Thiago Silva.
With the arrival of at least three other players, squad depth will improve at Chelsea and therefore a title challenge could be more likely.
