It's been a frustrating start to the summer transfer window for Chelsea. Thomas Tuchel has already seen his side lose key senior players without compensation, and any chance of conducting early business was halted due to their sanctions amidst the dramatic sale of the club.
This means that with under one month until the Premier League season kicks off, the Blues are yet to add to their squad, although football.london understands that Raheem Sterling is all but an announcement away from being officially unveiled as a Chelsea player.
The lack of patience at Todd Boehly's best efforts as interim sporting director has been vocal, and fans at Stamford Bridge have been given another reason to vent anger on social media. One of Tuchel's top attacking targets has seemingly chosen Barcelona over the Londoners, adding to the Catalan club's growing impact on Chelsea's own summer decisions.
