Chelsea internal problems holding back new signings; report
Chelsea internal problems are holding back new signings after a seemingly quiet summer transfer window.
Fabrizio Romano has revealed that the new Chelsea owners are currently prioritizing resolving internal problems after concerns have been raised over a slow transfer business.
Todd Boehly-led consortium, officially acquired the club last month, but problems left behind have hindered the club’s movement in the summer transfer window.
However, the Italian transfer expert Fabrizio said on his YouTube channel that Chelsea are also making transfer moves behind the scenes
“It’s not easy for new owners with the old board, so they are trying to find the right way and trying many things,” he said.
“But it’s not true that Chelsea moving [in the transfer market].
“Chelsea have a lot of things to resolve internally and of course, they will sign new players, and they are on it behind the scenes.
“I’m told this is the priority for new owners, Todd Boehly [and his team].”
Romano mentioned that among Chelsea internal problems is Romelu Lukaku’s transfer.
Lukaku wants a return to Inter Milan, likely on loan.
Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso could also leave this summer, with the two Spain internationals linked with moves to Barcelona.
In terms of contracts, the Blues also want to offer Mason Mount a new deal and will have to make decisions over N’Golo Kante’s and Jorginho’s.
Kante and Jorginho’s contracts expire next year, and Chelsea could be obviously at risk of losing both on free transfers.
Then the future of several young players, including Conor Gallagher and Armando Broja.
