Gary Neville slams Todd Boehly’s Chelsea transfer strategy amid Wesley Fofana and De Jong talks

Gary Neville has compared Chelsea's transfer strategy to a 'pinball' machine as he is the latest to question Todd Boehly's plans amid Wesley Fofana and Frenkie de Jong talks.

The Blues' transfer window has really heated up since their tour of the United States. Both Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly were while the Blues were in the US, and Marc Cucurella was the latest to commit to Thomas Tuchel's project as his £63million total move from Brighton was confirmed on Friday. All three took part in the Everton game but in different capacities with each of the trio showcasing just why Boehly spent big on securing each of their services.

With all factors taken into consideration in relation to potential incomings and outgoings before the September 1 deadline, it is expected that the American and Clearlake will aim to spend close to £300million this summer. Chelsea have had two bids rejected already for Wesley Fofana and will likely have to make him the world's most expensive defender if Leicester continue to stand firm.
