Chelsea can solve their attacking woes with a stunning transfer swoop to reunite two former teammates and also World Cup winners. With just six goals since November and four in 2023, Graham Potter has struggled since taking over from Thomas Tuchel, with scoring just one of his many problems.
Club top scorer Kai Havertz has scored just once in 2023 whilst Raheem Sterling also has one. A lack of impetus from anywhere else despite exciting flashes from Joao Felix and other new attacking signings has seen performances become turgid and stale.
That has been the way for a while too with Chelsea's 2022 output gradually worsening and causing issues towards the back end of last season. Ahead of a week that may well define his Stamford Bridge career Potter is still searching for answers.
