Despite their season derailing injuries to Reece James and Ben Chilwell, Chelsea have so far resisted the urge to spend big in the January transfer window.
Thomas Tuchel’s side have only won eight of their last 17 matches in all competitions since Chilwell injured his anterior cruciate ligament i n their 4-0 Champions League victory against Juventus in November.
James’ side-lining in the damaging home draw against Brighton and Hove Albion further confounded Chelsea’s issues, leaving them without their two best wing-backs.
