Chelsea eye Marcus Thuram transfer swoop as Todd Boehly reacts to injury blow

Chelsea are looking to heavily invest in new signings in the January transfer window, with a new attacker, midfielder, centre-back and right wing-back on the agenda. Benoit Badiashile and David Datro Fofana have both completed moves to Stamford Bridge, with Brazilian talent Andrey Santos expected to become the third arrival in the coming days.

Todd Boehly is monitoring Christopher Vivell's progress in negotiations with Benfica over a deal for Enzo Fernandez. The 21-year-old impressed for Argentina as they won the World Cup in Qatar, winning the Young Player of the Tournament award.

France were unable to retain their status as world champions after losing on penalties against Argentina in the final, despite Kylian Mbappe scoring a historic hat-trick. Chelsea's N'Golo Kante missed out on the tournament after aggravating a hamstring injury he suffered back in August, whilst Christopher Nkunku missed out through injury before agreeing a deal to become a Blues player at the end of the 2022/23 campaign.
