Chelsea's summer transfer window has been far from easy so far. The Blues were linked with a number of players during pre-season as the squad reshape began, however only three new signings have made their way through the doors at Cobham so far.
With only a few new faces, Thomas Tuchel is preparing to face Everton in Chelsea's first Premier League game of the season this weekend. The German coach has bemoaned the lack of transfers so far, claiming he is unsure just how competitive his side will be when they start the campaign.
While preparing for the current challenge ahead, there is some consideration to be done over the future shape of the squad as well. Looking towards the next few years has been a recent theme of Todd Boehly's transfer business, with 18-year-old goalkeeper Gabriel Slonina joining from Chicago Fire and a fee being agreed with Aston Villa for midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka.
