The acquisition of a right-footed winger was regarded as one of Chelsea’s pressing priorities heading into the summer transfer window, and the Blues have opted for potential in Jamie Gittens.
The Borussia Dortmund starlet enjoyed a breakout campaign in the Bundesliga last time out, starring under Nuri Sahin while the team faltered as a collective. Niko Kovač was less willing to let the 20-year-old spread his wings after his mid-season arrival, with Gittens’s starts limited during last campaign’s conclusion.
