Denzel Dumfries transfer plan made as Chelsea eye next two summer signings with £51m swoop

Out of the £200million transfer war chest that Todd Boehly made available to manager Thomas Tuchel at the start of the summer transfer window, just less than half of it has been spent so far on two acquisitions.

Both Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly have already made their impacts in different ways based off the latest pre-season encounter against Udinese on Friday night. Despite Tuchel being happy with both, it's clear that more is required as demonstrated by his 'urgent' appeal message in relation to 'quality' signings.

"He is a very, very good signing. A strong personality, a strong player. I am happy that he could play 70 minutes now. He’s getting fitter and fitter which is very important for us for the start of the season," Tuchel said on Koulibaly. He then added on Sterling: "He had chances, very heavily involved in other chances, it was a good performance."
