Chelsea have officially announced the signing of Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix on loan for the remainder of the 2022/23 season. The 23-year-old joins having signed a contract extension in the Spanish capital and without a buy clause inserted into the deal, meaning it is a short-term fix for the squad.
Given the nature of the Blues' position this season, it makes sense that urgent action is desired, with the side sitting 10th in the league and knocked out of both domestic cup competitions. A number of key injuries in the squad has left Graham Potter short in some departments, cranking up the pressure for the task at hand.
While Felix signing may be something of a boost to the side, the Blues shouldn't be done with signings there as a clear plan and execution of that plan has to be undertaken. A number of key areas are still yet to be addressed in both the short and long-term, so with that said, here's a look at five transfers Chelsea should look to make in January.
