The Athletic transfer weekly talked about the situation at Chelsea. The article said that Garnacho is still a priority target for Chelsea and the situation at Sterling and Chilville is difficult to resolve.
What happened this week?
Chelsea renews contracts with club joint sports directors Winstanley and Stewart until 2031, and senior recruiters Shields and Jewell will also renew their contracts. After Colville was seriously injured, Maresca said Chelsea needs to sign a new central defender.
Maresca wants a new central defender, does Chelsea need it?
The bigger question may be whether there are suitable candidates in the market? Chelsea are not planning to sign central defenders at the moment, one of the key reasons is that they have not found a replacement for Colville. Achimpen started in the first round of the Premier League, and his performance shows that he is ready to become the main force.
It is expected that Tosin will not be absent for too long, and Badiacile may also return after the international match in September. The two can provide some of the passing abilities of the defense, and Achimpen's passing abilities are also expected to be improved. Chelsea is confident about the depth of the lineup, including the defensive end. Colville's injury is undoubtedly a blow, but Chelsea also fully believe that Maresca can find a solution with its existing lineup.
What positions/players are they still focusing on?
Chelsea's signing focus for the rest of August is to improve the offensive system, and Garnacho remains their priority, he will compete with Gittens for the left winger position, and Chelsea is actively negotiating with Manchester United to find a solution. Chelsea also hopes to introduce an attacking midfielder and is still in informal negotiations with Leipzig on the transfer of Xavi Simmons, and Villa star Morgan Rodgers has also been highly praised by Stamford Bridge decision makers.
goalkeeper position is not what Chelsea wants to strengthen this summer, so they will not intend to introduce Donnarumma.
Which players may leave?
Chelsea is still working to streamline the roster, and any further signings this month will be held at the same time as the players for sale. Jackson is discussing possible transfer plans with the club, and four clubs in the first half of the Premier League and many Champions League teams have inquired about him.
Chelsea is not in a hurry to sell Jackson, but is willing to sell people at a suitable price. Although they want to sell £80 million, they may contact buyers at a lower price, as long as the price remains within the approximate price range of several other forwards this summer transfers.
Nkunku's situation is still complicated, and Bayern has been negotiating with Chelsea, but both players and Chelsea want permanent transfers rather than loans, which has become a barrier. Nkunku has also received attention from other Bundesliga clubs, including Leipzig, and he has also been inquired about by clubs in Italy and England.
George may leave Chelsea on loan or permanent transfer this month, especially with Garnacho joining, the club is working closely with George's team to find a club where he can play stably, and many clubs who want to loan George also hope to buy him out.
Vega and DiSassi are expected to be sold, they will stay in the Premier League, Chelsea rejected La Liga's offer this summer, England has three clubs competing for him, and DiSassi has two determined suitors in other leagues. Due to the older and higher incomes, Sterling and Chilville's situation is the hardest to resolve, and both of them may leave before closing the window. Gilchrist has attracted attention from the English Championship and overseas clubs and is expected to be sold.
