Jamie Redknapp praises 'thoroughbred' Wesley Fofana as Chelsea linked to Brentford's Ivan Toney

Chelsea kick off against Leeds later today with six new summer additions added to the same squad that won 3-0 at Elland Road last season.

The Blues are in the midst of a busy transfer period with two and a bit weeks remaining of the summer transfer window. The £13m acquisition of Cesare Casadei means that on top of all the new signings made in the academy, Todd Boehly has dished out nearly £190m on new recruits for the first-team set-up.

“No, the opposite of frustrated after last week’s match. I’m very happy, very confident after last week’s performance because I saw a good team, a very good team performance, an excellent match," manager Thomas Tuchel said in his pre-match press conference. "As I told you, we work together on reinforcements but it’s never easy and it’s not like we can just wish for something and it will happen."
