Chelsea are set to get their Premier League season underway this weekend with a trip to Goodison Park. The Blues take on Everton and former boss Frank Lampard looking to start the 2022/23 term well after an up and down 2021/22.
Thomas Tuchel's team endured a tough end to last season and found wins hard to come by as the club was cast into ownership uncertainty and the prospect of key players leaving. Heading into the summer, there plenty of fresh questions even as Todd Boehly and co finally completed their purchase of the club.
The departures of Marina Granovskaia and Petr Cech, in addition to the likes of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen left a number of gaps to fill and Boehly, as an interim-sporting director has made some headway with the additions of Kalidou Koulibaly, Raheem Sterling and Carney Chukwuemeka.
