The transfer domino effect is a common theme prevalent in most trading periods whereby a player leaving one club to join another opens the door for the selling club to bring in a replacement. In the January transfer window that label could certainly be placed on Chelsea and Arsenal dealings involving Jorginho and Enzo Fernandez.
Both clubs desperately wanted a new midfielder in January, with Moises Caicedo the recipient of offers from Arsenal and Chelsea. Brighton stood firm though insisting he was not up for sale despite the players own plea to help the club make their record transfer sale.
Deadline day very quickly arrived with the Gunners turning their attention to Jorginho and the Blues edging closer to signing Enzo Fernandez. Both moves went through and each player has endured a mixed start at their new teams, respectively.
