Chelsea's transfer strategy under Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital's ownership has mainly been built around the future with a string of young, world class signings.
In the summer, Carney Chukwuemeka was signed for a fee in the region of £20million after making just two Premier League appearances at Aston Villa prior. Four months later, teenager Andrey Santos signed from Vasco da Gama before Boehly smashed the club and British transfer record to land Enzo Fernandez on deadline day for £106million.
Fernandez has played in all nine games that have taken place since switching sunny Portugal for SW6. There were no signs of a 'transition' phase for the Argentine and it became evidently clear why Benfica were desperate to keep him.
