Chelsea are involved in yet another tug-of-war with the Blues monitoring Tottenham ’s interest in £25million Leandro Trossard.
It follows their stunning swoop last weekend to hijack Arsenal ’s move for £88.5million Shakhtar winger Mykhaylo Mudryk. That took Chelsea ’s January spending to £160million on four players, plus a lucrative loan deal for the Portugal striker Joao Felix.
But with the new owners at the west London club determined to completely overhaul the team and the squad, their mid-season business is understood not to be at an end. Brighton forward Trossard was part of Belgium’s World Cup side after a stunning first half of the season in which he scored goals against Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea.
